This beer was originally brewed with the intention to clean up my malt room. I had a challenge to create an interesting beer with many different types of malt that would make sense to our patrons. As I began to develop the recipe with fall in mind, I remembered the many fall hikes that I took as a child. Many of the aromas and flavors of the wilderness began to come to life. Nuts, evergreen sap, honey, maple, stone fruit and smoke all found a place in this ale. A warming ale released in late fall.

Thanks Helmut! Sampled from a growler this beer poured a dark brown color with orange highlights and a small soapy tan head that left a bit of lacing. The aroma was dryish and woody with a touch of caramel. The flavor was dryish, smoky, sooty and had undertones of honey and caramel. Long caramel and smoke finish. Medium body. Not my style.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery during the 5th anniversary party. Poured a clear amber brown with a near white head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma had sweet grain, honey and a hint of backing maple. Flavor had some sweet smokey grains with maple and a bit of honey coming out in the finish.

Sample at the brewpub. The beer is a clear amber-orange color with a medium thin beige head that dissipates slowly. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. The aroma is smoky and malty with a touch of hops. Medium body with flavors of smoked malt, molasses and mild peppers. The finish is smoky with a burnt malt aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.
