Growler fill from the brewery. Brown ale with a hint of pumpkin pie spice on top of a nice malt backbone. Initial pour yields a high, foamy head. Murky orange copper body, spicy nutty aroma. Taste is sweet, spicy and bitter all at the same time. Bitter finish. Nice harvest beer without going overboard on the pumpkin pie flavors.

On Tap at the Hoptober Freshtival The host brewer offering this nice light pale ale. The fresh hops add a nice touch. A basic fresh hop brew. Tasty.

On Tap at the Hoptober Freshtival in Boise. Clear but dark brown/black. Roasted notes in the aroma dn a slightly mocha flavor. Rather thin bodies, ell attenuated. This I think would be even better with a bigger malt bill higher ABV and more residual sugars.

Sweet and smooth, dark and black, impervious to light. Beige brown frothy head. Aroma of roast grains, chocolate and some light coffee scent. Taste is bittersweet chocolate, with a little burnt toast thrown in for good measure. Overall nice mouth feel.

Nice pour from the CSB growler fill. Light orange/copper with a soft head, lots of lacing. Hoppy citrus aroma, taste is more citrus (grapefruit), with a nice clean finish. Yummy!

On tap at bier thirty. Pours out a hazy orangeish golden topped with white head. Nose is lots of ginger spice and perfume. Taste is like hand soap with ginger and floral notes. A bitter hop ending thing going on.

I think they’re getting better at this. Nice smooth, buttery beer, slick mouth feel with a nice creamy head. Malt with a tinge of sweetness.

On Tap at the taproom. Hazy deep orange with a thin quick sandy head. Perfumey floral hop aroma, with the classic tart spicy saison yeast flavors. Rather strong and the ABV burn is there a bit. A tasty, hefty Saison. Looking forward to more of the style from these guys.

Was expecting some lemon freshness to go with this otherwise bland wheat ale. Lemons are a no show, leaving you with a rather pedestrian wheat ale, dry and slightly chalky. Nothing to see here folks, move along...
