Hazy golden color, small white head, some lace. Flowery Cascade hoppy, quite intensive for APA. Medium-bodied. More malty and sweet side in the flavor than hoppy. Some fruityness, finishing watery and sweet.

Dark ruby, small cappuchino head. A bit sweetish, light roast plus yeast in the nose. Not very typical Porter. Chocolaty, cold coffee flavor, a bit sweet, not very intensive flavor. Basic, good drinkable "session porter".

A hazy orange beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is slightly dusty, hoppy combined with notes of caramel. The flavor is dominated by caramel, with very light notes of hops on a thin body.

Bottle Pours a clear deep redish brown witha nice foamy light tan head. Nutty woody slightly sour aroma No surprises in the flavors. Low on the hops like a brown should be and a littel sweet. Nutty and soft with a fairly lifely fizz. Clean slightly dry finish and very drinkable. Another nice offering from teh boys in Bend

On tap at the brewpub. A hazy light amber with a very small white head. Hops up front in the aroma and the higher ABV is apparent as well. Tasted mainly of the rather sharp hops, and alcohol. Malts were light and a bit sweet and balanced nicely. Stong and in your face.

Aroma of dark chocolate, roasted malts with hints of licorice and smoke. This poured black with thin slightly tan head that quickly disappeared, but left a rim of lacing on the edges. Roasted flavor was dominant with a slight bitter hop finish and a lingering taste of licorice. This could have stood a tad more body.
