Oregon Brewers Festival 2011 – Portland, OR
Golden in color, slight haze with a thin white head. Light mint aroma with light malt. This is a refreshing light ale with interesting light mint. They say it I has no hops this was minty and left that fresh like mouth feel. Interesting brew.

had this at the oregon brewers festival. It poured with a light straw color that I wold expect from a kolsch. Nice head with a nose dominated by mint. While expected, it was all mint and far from subtle. The palate was lighter, but it more tasted like mint scope than a beer. Was memorable for the wrong reasons

A very minty aroma which comes across as a dried mint flavour, not fresh. The mint in the mouth is mellow and vaguely unpleasant. I guess I’m not a fan of minty drinks, this seems to make me feel like I had just brushed my teeth before having a beer. A weird thing.
