COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our flagship beer is based on a turn-of-the-century recipe that quenched the thirst of miners during the Klondike Gold Rush. Smooth and richly malty, this altbier goes well with any meal.

UPDATED: FEB 4, 2010 ~Pours a clear amber with small fluffy white head. ~Sweet and spicy scent. Caramel and nutmeg Red apple esters. ~Malty biscuit flavor. Sweet, but with a bit of spice. ~Medium feel with carbonation tingles. Sweet dry finish. ~Well balanced brew. Taste good anytime of year. Spice reminds me of the holidays though. Enjoyable

Courtesy of Fonefan. The color is red amber and the head is creamy. The aroma is fruity and spicy with notes of malt and caramel. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of malt, caramel, fruit, spices, a little nuts and candy sugar. It’s OK, but at the same time a bit ordinary.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a small diminishing white head. The aroma is caramel malt, lightly toasted grains, and light fruity hops. The flavor is more roasted than the nose indicated. Roasted caramel malts, light fruit (plum/prune), mild bitterness, and toffee. Medium bodied fairly easy to drink.

Imaena (259) - Portland, Maine, USA - JUL 1, 2008
Draught @ Celtic Swell on Alkai beach West Seattle. copper/amber pour with bitter malt aroma. Good session beer with reasonable dryness and restrained hopping. Viscous finish that sits well with the residual sweetness. Great price.
