Burnside Permafrost is a big strong ale brewed with 7 different malts and copious amounts of Columbia and Amarillo hops pillowed in the middle to give this warming brew a chewy complex malt body and a unique fruity juicy hoppiness throughout. You won’t want to sip this dangerously strong and tasty beer like you should but pound it.

[2/24/15] Draught at Burnside Brewing in Portland. Hazy orange-amber. Aroma of malt, caramelly and a bit candy-ish, and some piney and fruity hops. Sweet malty flavor with caramel, a bit of candy, some fruitiness, and a bitter hops finish with a light alcoholic note. Medium-bodied, a bit oily.

650 ml bottle. Pours a hazy amber with light head. Aromas of candied oranges, toffee, and a boatload of toasted doughy malts. Flavors are similar. Fruity and chewy.

Bomber from Malt &n Vine. Pours dark orange/copper with a beige head. Aroma of toasty malts. Med + body. Flavor is pretty dark malt, with chocolate notes, and a good deal of fruit. Definitely moves to toffee/molasses. Nice hop content, tho hop is second place. Good brew. It doesn’t finish dry.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a copper color with a small white head. The aroma is big spicy bananas and light citrus. The flavor is more big malty flavors, spices, some low bitterness. Pretty one sided. Decent brew. Very drinkable.
