About
The reason Jamie Emmerson and Irene Firmat started Full Sail in the first place was to build a company that was completely different from the ones where we’d previously worked. It wasn’t about business as usual. It was about finding our calling in life — about truly appreciating our “human resources,” and balancing work, life, family and friends in a way that makes life truly worth living.
Determined to make world-class beer in our own backyard, one of our first, and perhaps best, decisions was to invest in new, state-of-the-art brewing equipment. So we bit the bullet, laid down our borrowed cash, and spent the better part of 1987 installing the new system. Our love for the environment is what drives our sustainable practices, so pure water, local ingredients and responsible processes are poured into each and every tasty pint.

Very hazy light amber color. Nice sweet juicy nose, with mangoes and apricots. Mouth feel is a bit too carbonated, but still enjoyable. Low medium bitterness.

Bottle from Boise Co-op. Hazy, medium golden with a small, tight creamy head. Light aroma, biscuit malts, citrusy hops. Taste brings more citrus , light citrusy hops too. Bitterness gets some mild dank and piney notes. Nice feel.
