Jul 23, 2008 Big cracker malt backbone with big hops. More of an IPA than a bitter, but it was really fantastic. Dry with some earthy and caramel components. Tried to get a growler of this but they had ran out after my sampler.

Mar 9, 2005 Sampled draught at Bend Brewing Company, Bend
Copper color, light head & lacing. Nose of light hops & esters, fairly light. Note of diacetyl and watermelon. Flavor of Columbus hops. Very earthy & up front with the hops. Finishes light, average, kinda malty.

Mar 8, 2005 Amber with strong lacing and a frothy head. Eh, bitter slightly with almost a bland or stale malt aroma. Some citrus. The flavor is mostly bitter. The stale malts give it an almost card board like taste. Bitter finish.

Nov 30, 2003 Amber in color, mostly clear. Sweet malts balanced by a very healthy, building bitterness. Creamy and smooth texture, though just a bit cloying and cobwebish in the finish. Nevertheless, a pretty decent bitter.
