7/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
Deep dark brown coloured body with a thinnish, off-white and tan head that fades relatively quickly but leaves a nice, subtle one centimetre lace on top. Aroma of toasted grain, light grapes, a touch of coffee, some earthy and nutty malts with a light dose of bread, dough and yeast and finishing with some soft caramelised sugars - quite nice and light in the nose. Medium-bodied; Rich nutty, earthy malts dominate here with a good body and a rich profile, showing some floral aspects, but more of a drier, nuttier taste, especially at the end with some almost unfinished sugars and doughiness to the bite, with some light hazlenuts and peanuts as well at the very end. Aftertaste shows some of the earth and grain with some caramelised sugars and light yeast with a light mushroomy and coffee flavour, especially at the end, but balanced well with all the malts. Overall, a nice and robust malty and earthy profile that hits some nice deeper flavours and the yeast comes through with a good lager and grassy profile, especially at the end, but the complexity does well here throughout. Overall, a nice and robust, earthy, malty and grainy beer that has some good nutty, yeastie and complex flavours, but relatively easy-drinking makes this a good option in the fall in Alaska or even down here in Washington! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from La Bodega in Anchorage, Alaska on 01-July-2021 for US$3,05 sampled at my house here in Washington on 09-October-2021 a few days after returning from the store itself and the city/State itself.
