16oz crowler from brewery. Amber body, filmy head. Big toasty malt aroma with some fruity, citrus notes towards the back, oranges. More sweet caramel notes in the taste, similar to an amber ale, zippy hoppy flavors following immediately behind. Comes off as a hoppy amber ale.

Crowler from brewery. Deep golden body, what little bit of head it has disappears. Aroma is bready malts, a little caramel, a little grass. Taste mimics the aroma, malty, caramel. Dry with an abrupt finish.

Crowler from brewery. Dark, dark amber, but clear, spotty beige head. Aroma is toasty malts, faint sweet notes. Taste comes across thin, watery, then sweet elements, light roadt and mild bitterness. Not much different from the brown ale I just rated.

On Tap at the Boise brewery/taproom Some haze on this deep amber pour. Thin wispy tan head. Some toasted malts and some over ripe pitted fruits. Woody slightly sweet maltiness in the flavors and a smooth finish with notes of caramel. A littel bozy still but faded hop bitterness has taken its toll a bit. Nice smooth winter sipper.
