Taste courtesy of jcwattsrugger. Thanks John. Pours deep amber with clear ruby hues and light tan head. It has a pleasing pine hop aroma with modestly roasty malts in the background. The taste is nice with an assertive level of pine hops followed by a murmuring of dark roasted malts. Into the finish the dark malt roastiness grows some to provide a pleasing balance against the pine hop bitterness.

Draft @ TFD Boise. Pours a brownish amber color with a thin beige head. Nose is lightly floral, dark fruits, and toffee. Tastes of the florals and dark fruits up front, but becomes dry and wheaty in the tail. Has sort of this odd sweet v. savory thing going on in the end. A little hot and maybe too young. As is sits, it’s not one of Sockeye’s better brews (imho). I think oak would be neat for this one.

Draft @ Sockeye. Pours a deep chocolatey brown color with a modest tan head. Silky aroma is light roast, light fruitiness, and heavy in the chocolate. Tastes reminds me first of chocolate cake, then cherry cordials. Enough roast to keep it from being a sweet bomb, but enough chocolate and cherries to get the point across. This was really nice.
