Mar 6, 2008 On tap at The Victory in SE Portland. Tastes a bit sweet and malty. Good amount of alcohol in there too. Just like a strong ale should be.

Feb 9, 2008 1/19/08 On draught at the Portland brewhouse. Aroma is sweet and all malty, but has a strong vegetal (fresh) character that doesn’t hurt, but is very weird. Appearance is clear copper with a low white. Flavor is earthy English brown in character with good sweetness and low bittering. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a medium carb texture. Overall, fairly good, but lacking some unique character.

Jan 7, 2008 07-08 Road Trip with BikesandBeer. Had at Horsebrass Pub in Portland. Porus amberish orange with a thin ring head. Nose has a slight hop character. Tastes ehh. Overall this was pretty damn poor, barely worth trying again.

Dec 30, 2007 On tap at Widmer Bros. in NE Portland, OR--Poured a deep copper body with a thick whtie head. Floral, tangy sweet earthy hops with a balance of caramel maltiness. Pretty unmemorable. Thin finish. Didn’t leave much of an impression other than hiding the 7+% ABV alcohol quite well.
