3 pints at The Wonder Bar, Looks like a Brown Ale and tastes like a hoppy Brown Ale.

Big fucken can @ home, thanks to R@@@@@ for picking me this up in Lander, Wyoming. Pours a fairly clear, golden orange appearance with a tan head. Aroma is actually quite full of corn. Some spice in the nose as well. Decent mouth feel. Moderate sweetness and bitterness. Dull herbal hops. Some plastic-y notes. Another disappointment from Wind River.

Big fucken can @ home, thanks to R@@@@@@ for picking this up for me in Lander, Wyoming. My first WPA!! Pours a bit hazy dark orange appearance with a light brown head. Hops are bit spicy, a little green, and grapefruit juicy. Some caramel notes as well. Carbonation is a bit dull. Flavor has a fair amount of toast, grapefruit, orange citrus, and a bit of pine. Ok.

Howler(1/2 Growler) purchased at Liquor Shed in Casper.
A- into my Samuel Smith pint glass it goes and...it pours a hazy orange gold, 1" head of foam, pretty good lacing.
S- it has kind of a fruity sweet nose up front, now I get a bit of hop bitterness, citrus, and some grainy notes.
T- malt forward, there’s some caramel malt right off the bat, a wee bit of grain and earthy notes, the hops come forward and brings a mild bitterness that grows and finally dominates but again, it;s on the mild side. The whole flavour show is on the mild side with this brew.
M- medium body, with the carbonation a bit too low for my liking, I reckon the mouthfeel is okay.
O- an interesting and tasty brew, I find it good and drinkable. For folks looking for a in your face Pale Ale, look elsewhere; I like the subtleness this brings to the table.

On tap at the Mountain Brewers Festival 2013. Pours a clear copper color with a medium tan/white head. A light nose of fruit and some butter. The flavor is lightly infected with diacetal, some caramel, light floral hops. Decent. Will re-rate.
