It’s a hoppy, Northwestern-style brown ale that highlights the best of both worlds. Dark malts give it a rich, robust mouthfeel and a toasty, caramel-like aroma, with a generous dose of Northwestern hops providing a tasty balance of resiny and citrus hop flavors. A beer for hikes, trails or wherever you may roam.

Can: Hazy brown with a thick beige head. Leafy, tea, caramel aroma. Slightly spicy, herbal hops, caramel malt taste. Quite hoppy......resin, leafy bitter.... Very IPA-like. Really good.

Tall can. Clear dark brown with an off-white head. Nutty, sweet malt aroma. The flavor is light sweet but there is a good hop bitterness to this. India Brown Ale.

Can. Milk, pecan, toffee malt, and fresh hay aroma. Copper wtih nice light tan head. Moderately sweet nutty toffee malt and moderately bitter orange peel/grass flavor. Nice body and blending. Absolutely delicious - a top notch brown ale.

Pour is a dark brown with a large tan head. Aroma is a decent brown malt with some perfumey hops. Flavor is a decent almost roasted malt with some hop bitterness and finishes with some cracker dryness. An ok brown ale that is hoppier than the average brown ale.
