Draught at the brewery in Hood River
Dark brown color with creamy head. Good strength and good caramel flavor, without being sweet; it’s a bit nutty, correctly bitter. Pleasant.

12oz bottle from the state store
Clear dark brown with a medium sized beige head that dissipates quickly, light lacing. Aroma of dark fruit, toasted malts with a light smokiness. Flavors of toasted malts, caramel, coffee, bready and chocolate
Nice

Bottle picked up at Supermarket Liquor in Foco. Pours a clear dark brown appearance with a thin, light brown head. In the aroma, there’s a lot of coffee, light roast, cocoa, and a bit of toffee. Medium full body. A little nutty. Light cola. Hint of graininess. Flavor is mostly chocolate, caramel, and coffee. Not too sweet. Medium light bitterness. Maybe a little herbal. Drinks pretty damn good.

Not a home run, but a god solid swing for the fence. Cola colored body, with small beige head, leaves streaky lacing. Light dark malt aroma leads to a pretty robust taste, mildly sweet, malty and dry. Finish lingers for a while, pleasant aftertaste. Nice job.

Bottle - I have a strong feeling that this is the same beer as the LTD06, as therecipe sounds the same and the abv and ibus are identical - anyway, at the very least I enjoy this batch a bit more than the last time I had the 06 - nose is a bit subdued, but has a decent rich maltiness, with some toffee, chocolate, and a touch of melanoidin character - fairly creamy texture - moderate to.high sweetness - a bit of odd spiciness to it, plus a slight acidity that borders on metallic - finish has some hazelnut, toffee, plus some lingering spiciness (cinnamon) - hmm...maybe not that much of an improvement over the last batch of 06, but still a slight improvement - of all the LTDs to make an annual thing, why this one?
