Description
Wallace Brewing Company, 15-barrel microbrewery, began selling its beer in January 2009, in historic Wallace, Idaho.
A collaborative effort of Wallace’s Chase Sanborn, Dean Cooper, Rick Magnuson and the Zanettis, the brewery pays homage to the town’s notorious past, creating a brand of beers with mining and bordello-inspired monikers such as ‘Dirty Blonde’, ‘Jackleg Stout’, ‘RedLight Irish Red Ale’, and ‘Idaho Select Light Lager’ .
“We want to brew in the honest spirit of the mining heritage,” General Manager, Chase Sanborn said. “It’s not only the prevailing reputation of the town, but also one that can elevate the Wallace Brewing brand.

22oz bottle 397 of 1000. Pours out a amber copper topped with a sand head. Nose is oak toffee caramel. Taste is more of the nice oak toffee light fruit and a mild end.

Six pack from Grocery Outlet. Medium, clear golden body with a fading foamy head. Grainy aroma places it squarely in lager territory, a small bitter bite from the hops moves it closer to a pils. Finishes dry. Middle of the pack.

Rerate on 4/14/20. 12 oz can from Hops & Bottles. Clear, brjhht golden pour, lasting foamy head, clumpy lacing. Aroma is light piney hops with some sweet caramel malts underneath, resinous. Taste is a toned down version of the aroma, offering some bittering, woody, resiny hops and a minor hit of sweetness. That bitterness remains on the palate, sticky, lingering in the background for quite some time. Prior Review: 3.3 Bottle from Brewers haven. Deep golden body, small, soft silky head, streaky lacing. Piney, hoppy aroma. hop forward in the taste, soapy and bitter. Some nice malts float around in the background, but this is a fairly hoppy IPA.

Bottle clear light amber with a little redish tint. Thin but lasting light tan head. Spotty web-like lacing. Earthy woody malt aroma and flavors. Decent bitterness and mostly piney. Smooth a moderate body. Fairly big IPA but balanced and good.

Grunt fill from Albertsons. A nice rich copper color with a fairly abundant frothy head. Big malty aroma , kind of dusty and earthy. Taste also features the malts, very bready, kind of dry. Pretty accurate rendition of the style, and one not too common in these parts..

Bottle from Homebrewstuff. Reddish brown pour, small, weak beige head. Malts dominate the aroma and taste, sweetness, like from molasses, minor earthy, peat notes. Not much of a finish, fades fast.
