Description
It all started with a humble homebrew kit and the drive to make better beer. Tired of the same bland and dated choices everywhere, Air Force friends Eric Wallace and Dick Doore set out to make the kind of beer that excited them; beer they wanted to drink. A hobby quickly became an obsession and it wasn't long before Left Hand Brewing opened for business on January 22, 1994. Left Hand has steadily increased its production, making the Brewers Association’s Top 50 Craft Brewers list in 2012.

Can. Pale amber with a cm of white head. Aroma of pine, tropical fruit, caramel. Medium bodied. Breadcrust, some tropical notes before nice firmish piney bitterness at the end. Fair before a good finish.

16oz can from Boise Co-op. Dark brown nitro pour, silky, creamy beige head. Aroma is cinnamon and cardamom, savory, snickerdoodles. Taste lightens up on the cinnamon, allowing some sweet milky flavors through . Cardamom appears at the finish to provide a nice savory bite. Creamy, velvety feel with very mild bitterness.
