Full bodied with a mildly hopped finish. It got a little something too it. I think this brewery is a little under rated as most of their stuff is at least half decent.

Has a hoppy nose with hints of caramel and a firm hoppy body, and hoppy finish. There is very little outstanding about the beer except it really has no major flaws.

Dark reddish-amber; light toffeeish flavour w/ some brown sugar notes. Sweetish finish. Not particularly bruising for a strong ale, but it''s a nice little apres-ski mellower.

Dark amber; light clover aroma; fruity taste (pineapple, apple) with a cool clover honey note. Faint malts, but this drinks easy.

Starts fine with a generous Cascade dry-hop aroma, but the body is light, the malts subdued and the hops in the palate are goldings. Goldings + Cascades = trainwreck.
