Dark brown coloured body with a thick, four to five centimetre tall, rich tan and light brown coloured head that stays afloat for a long time. Aroma of toasted malt, light caramelised sugars, toffee, earth, nuts, grain and a good hit of both lactose and full cream. Medium-bodied; Strong rich nutty and earthy flavours dominate with a lot of creamy and vanilla flavours that show some lactose, a good deal of grain and ending with a very pleasant brown sugar sweetness at the very end. Aftertaste shows the malt, grain, caramelised sugars, earthiness and especially a sweet, brown sugar and almost molasses like flavour. Overall, a very nice scotcch with a ton of brown and caramelised sugars with a lot of earthy and nutty qualities as well. A good option to break through from the hoppy beers that are typically available up here in Montana, but this is a great deep malty option. I sampled this sixteen ounce, full-pint can, purchased from Albertson's in Livingston, Montana on 29-July-2020 for US$2,49 sampled in my hotel room here in Yellowstone National Park (Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel) on 31-July-2020.

Clear copper and bronze coloured body with a thinnish off-white head. Aroma of grassy and very herbal hops with some very low alpha acids and almost more citrus and honey scents along with malt notes than anything hoppy or pungent. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong grainy and malty notes dominate up front with a big caramelised sugar, toffee and earthy grain notes with a dry floral kick from hops which do come through a few seconds later, but some light grapefruit and very floral notes on the finish. Aftertaste shows the grassy and grainy qualities, but not much else - fairly bitter from the malts versus the hops, but with some nice floral notes as well and some smooth sugars. Overall, not a bad IPA - this is akin to an East Coast IPA with its large malt character, but still showing some soft bitterness on the edges. I sampled this sixteen ounce, full pint-sized can, purchased from Albertson's [grocery store] in Livingston, Montana on 29-July-2020 for US$2,49 sampled in my hotel room here in West Yellowstone, Montana on 01-July-2020.

16 oz. Aroma is Whoppers, chocolate, grain, garbage, coffee. Pours hazy brown with orange highlights; has a one finger beige head that falls pretty quickly. Taste is sweet and roasty with nice coffee, chocolate and peat flavors. Tastes a hell of a lot better than it smells. Good if you plug your nose.
