355ml can. Pours a slightly hazy brown with ruby hue and a large, creamy, long lasting, tan head that laces. Semi-sweet aroma of toasted caramel malt, cocoa, earth and nuts. Sweet flavour of toasted caramel malt, chocolate, brown sugar, day old coffee and nuts in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Easy drinking. Pretty standard Brown Ale.

On tap at 2C Nampa. Light foggy pale yellow orange. Thin ring of white bubbles faint herbal and melon fruit notes. Subtle graininess and no bitter bite. Not sure what this is... even less sure it’s beer. Not unpleasant just odd.

Draft at Mad Swede. Hazy amber, skin of head. Light malty aroma with a hoppy burst. More sweet, caramelly malts, classic hoppy edge. Lots of body.

22oz bottle pours out hazy straw topped with a white head. Nose is light citrus lemon grass and grain oats. Taste is more of the nice light lemon citrus hops some zest and a oat bill. Funny to have poured this while watching The Last Kingdom.

12 oz crowler from Craft Brewers. Dark brown body, clear, but too dark to see through. Nutty aroma with a hint of coffee. Woody, nutty flavors, light coffee and a nice bitter finish.

Bomber from brewery. Pours out a light hazy pale golden, small bubbly head. Soft grainy aroma, lemons. Taste is mildly sweet with more light lemon. Oats give it a nice soft, full texture.

12 oz can from Boise Co-OP. Medium golden, clear, bright, foamy head subsides to small patches. Aroma is malty, fresh bread. Taste starts with the mslts, mild sweetness a d then a nice sharp hoppy bite comes in. Very well balanced brew.
