Interesting beer, though it has a somewhat distracting mustiness. Tons of fruit, with notes of pear, apple, grape, and mango. Smooth lager qualities. Woodsy and earthy, possibly too much. "Green" and grassy hop flavors are kind of overwhelming, but the floral-like bitterness is balanced.

Firkin at green dragon firkin fest - pours cloudy amber, off white medium head. Nose of sweet nectar and malt. Nice balance of hop and malt. Has a moderate hop bite. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Metal bottle in a lager glass. Pours amber with a cream-colored head. Aroma of floral hops with a little caramel and pale malts plus light oak. Flavor the same. Average texture. Not the best beer, but interesting.

It’s made out of a light but strong metal (not sure what it is). Makes for safe and easy camping, hiking, biking, or backpacking. Save the cap, and use the bottle as an emergency water bottle. When you get lost in the wilderness, you can use the bottle to store your own urine for a last resort.

Might not be fair for me to judge. All of the base camps had a underlying profile that i just didn’t relate to. Others might really enjoy that style. My tastes have been ruined by the ultra hoppy beers of central oregon.

Aluma bottle. Pours clean clear rusty copper with head that falls quick. Nose is pretty much on the sweet caramel, ice tea, earthy, floral slight oak undertones. Cleaner and crisper tasting that I was anticipating. Herbal tea maltiness, pepper, honey, finishes with some oak and then more pepper in the finish. Kind of a strange beer.

Minty caramel and iced tea soft fruitiness vegetal and w soft oak. Pours copper thin bubbly head and lace. Caramel and iced tea vegetal minty hop notes toasted oak notes. Too much crystal malt tangy odd. Not sure where the lager is. Tenth rate lock this gem in!

On draught at Base Camp. Such a smooth and hoppy (in a floral citrusy way). Flavor of apricot shines through. Did not expect to enjoy it as much as I did.

From a 22oz metal bottle, one and half fingers of cork colored head. A hazy, copper colored body. The smell of lemon and grapefruit. The taste is interesting in a good way. Medium bitterness throughout with a short finish. Pretty mellow overall. A little fizz in the texture. Moderate carbonation and medium body. Great drinkability and from a metal bottle. Perfect for a camping trip.

Tap @ Base Campe... Poured deep amber with a moderate, khaki head. Nose had a wonderful bouquet of floral, NW hops. Full bodies, moderate mouthfeel. Some bitterness and hop tones, bready malts for balance. Clean finish. Not much oak presence though.
