Light caramel aroma with a hint of roast. Bright amber colour. Light flavour, a little toasty. Some diacetyl towards the end that becomes too assertive.

Named because it''s located in Cloverdale, not because is has clover or clover honey in it (it doesn''t). It has a citric, fruity hop aroma and a tempered but tasty bitterness.

Light brown with lasting white head. Smooth and creamy malt flavor, not much more.

Brown,large lasting off white head. Light toasted nose.Lightly roasted chocolate malt flavor. Like many beers from this brewer, this is misnamed. it is more of a brown ale or even a black lager than a porter. Not bad, just not a porter.

Amber with thick lasting white head. Good malt nose. Predominantly malt palate with faint hops. Misnamed?not a Pale Ale
