All Pints North 2016. Light red color, not purple. Some berry, and lots of malt, a big malt profile and I would not have labeled it as a pilsner at all. Berry in the flavor and aroma. Less blueberry than the previous Bent Paddle blueberry infusion today.

All Pints North 2016. This was one of the best beers of the festival. Banana, and coconut flavor and aroma. Less mango, but it is there in the flavor as well. Strong fruit flavor. The hops are not as intense as they can be when this beer is fresh, but this is a great infusion.

All Pints North 2016. Cherry in the aroma and the flavor. Mild hops, good, dry malt flavor. The fruit is subtle but enough you know it is there. Dryness of a bitter with cherry.

Sample at the 29th Annual Oregon Brewers Festival on 07/30/2016. Pale golden color with a medium thin frothy white head that dissipates steadily to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Herbal hops, fruit and malt in the nose. Light-bodied with flavors of floral hops, fruit and bready malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a short hoppy aftertaste. Decent overall.

Solid beer for the orange peel. Citrus hops with orange in the flavor and the aroma. Carbonation seems a little lower. Citrus hop finish and a mild hop burn.
