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).

Bottled 355ml. -Finally! The most expected beers have arrived! Well, the story goes like this - my friend "Dragan the Drot" went to live to USA, Salt Lake City, so I’ve asked him to bring me some Wasatch beers when he would come to visit Croatia. So, he came here some four years ago, but have brought no beers. Then, a week later, his girlfriend came too, and he said she was bringing the beers. But, again no beers - they said she was thirsty and drank them while waiting for plane to catch....hmm?! Some time after that, he has sent a package - I though this is it, but no, he has sent a bottle of tequilla! (very good tequila but never mind). And now, after six years of waiting, my friend has come to visit again and this time he has brought a bunch of Wasatchs beers plus one Squatters! Heeeellll Yeaaahhhh!!!
Now something about beer itself...Clear amber coloured, small airy off-white head, dust and caramel in the nose. Sweet malty, caramel and quite watery with nutty notes in the finish. Short sweet finish. Expected better one.

tap at McStiff’s - Pours light amber with a lingering off-white head and good lacing. It has a mild caramel malt aroma. The flavor is lightly toasted caramel malt with some very mild hops. It’s light and refreshing, but needs something more.

Bottle: Red-amber with a short, beige head. Peppery caramel scent. Taste is breadheel, caramel, salt, slightly vegetal. Not bad at first, but the green bean aspect gets stronger as it warms. A little odd.

Bottle: Medium depth copper pour with a thin ring of sandy head. Nose is malty and sweet… lightly bready. Same translates into the taste, but with more emphasis on bready. Gets a little dry too. Faint florals and dandelion. Finishes a little metallic. OK.

Bottled. An amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and caramel as well as a bit of dusty hops, leading to a dry finish.
