It's an indisputable fact – beer alone is responsible for the evolutionary leap from ape to man. This malt-forward ale is balanced with Willamette hops for a crushable amber that would make Charles Darwin proud. (previously Evolution Ale).

On tap at the BP. Clear mahogany pour. Thin off white head. Nice smooth toasted and sweet woody maltiness. Very low hops and a little under buttered even for an amber. Nice malt character

From old notes. In my recollection I have only had beer from this brewery when in Utah, which was 2001. As Vagabond Ale. Pale blonde color. Nice layer of foam. Aroma's of malt, grain, some sweetness and fruit. Flavor is light grainish, light sweet, fruity. Light bodied. Light bitter finish. Clean and flavorful enough for 4% ABV.

At Cowboy’s Smokehouse, Panguitch. Pours hazy amber with a lasting, foamy, off-white head. The light aroma contains caramel, nuts, malt and hops. It tastes medium sweet and very light bitter with a short finish. Light body, slick/watery texture, soft carbonation. Lacking some taste evolution...

On tap at Wasatch, pours a clear orange amber with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of bready malts and no hops. Not much going on here. Meh.
