Big 40oz pour at Chef Geoff’s Downtown location. Pours a hazy burnt orange with some frothy, sticky, white head. Nose has bread and malt notes, orange, grapefruit, soap. Is the "northwest" tag a hint at Cascade hops, because I suspect a lot of them. Flavor follows along, mild sweetness, bread notes, cracker, orange, soap. Crisp finish, medium bitterness.

Full pint at Lia’s in Chevy Chase. Poured a light copper color with a small white head. Aroma was light caramel notes, touch of pine. Flavor was light caramel, some bitter notes. Touch of floral notes, a little biscuit. Pretty tasty about halfway between their pale ale and IPA.
