Clear amber color with a small white head. Apple juice and black pepper in the aroma. Appley taste with a hint of caramel and maybe some more black pepper. Simple and light but very good for what it is.

I started drinking this on the tail end of a summer in Anchorage. Very complex taste of hops, malts that somehow mixes together in a good, hearty combination. I can’t really think of another beer to compare it to, it’s rather unique. Try some if you’re in the northwest USA.

Bottle. I got a bad bottle! There was no carbonation left and the beer tasted expired or something. I will re-rate in the future.

On tap. Nice malty aroma with a very light hop scent. Amber in color with a small head. Good malt flavor, slightly sweet, with a nice smooth finish. Soft carbonation. This is a good beer out of the bottle but even better on tap. One of Alaska’s better known beers.

in a trade withThis bottled brew poured a small sized head of fine to medium sized of unnoted length white colored bubbles that left behind a good lacing. The body contained soft carbonation, was transparent and caramel brown in color. Its aroma contained notes of sweet malty bready . Its mouth feel is initially tingly with a palate and a very mild bock aftertaste. Its flavor contained sweet malt mild cherry notes. Strange blackdonald
