COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
From the first day of the first mash of the first recipe in the first space to this oasis 13 years on the road; We have worked hard to walk in the footsteps of our hero brewers. The Esteemed brewer of California’s best Pale Ale, the Noble Brewer of the planet’s only legal Steam Beer, and Oregon’s Rebel Brewer from Newport. Thirteen years down the road, we have found our own voice as brewers but our admiration for the Great Ones has not dimmed one bit. If we walked well down the hero’s path ourselves, perhaps we too have been an inspiration for others. Beer is a Bronze Age business and we feel honored to have left our footprints on its path into history, at the same time leaving our flavors on your buds. Thanks for your trust over the years and we hope you enjoy this specially brewed Hi-Gravity Auburn offering. Beer Speaks. People Mumble! O.G. 1.085 76.92 IBU

big caramel and strawberry nose, a hint of stone fruit in the nose. Well balanced rounded, moderately hoppy nose with cherries and strawberries. Moderate bitter finish

Heavy caramel, cereal, and resin, with mild earthy and alcohol notes great the nostrils. It fills my snifter with hazy amber ale topped by a couple of fingers worth of thick beige head. This is quite malty, but that may be due to the several months it has spent at room temperature prior to my recent purchase. It was enjoyable, but hard to recommend unless it is fresh.

Thanks to fellow soldier Bobo for bringing me this from Ohio A furious pour leaves a rather attractive ale, clear dark copper with a lovelly eggshell/creme head thats large and creamy. very spicy hop aromas, with a good hint of fruitiness mmm tasty beer, its fully hopped ,yet very good malting mellows the raging hop a bit and leaves a nice fruity ,sweet beer, bitter finish. Very nice and smooth mouthfeel, makes avery drinkable ale for its strength. I liked this beer a lot

Tantilizing lemon/orange-esque aroma upon pour. Little head retention. Color is a medium orange. Thought it was going to be darker. Poured from a pounder bottle. Taste is succulent and reminds me a bit of Blue Moon. This would be a summer beer for me. I am impressed with the overall floral and fruit smell. The beer is definitely high quality and deserves a spot in most everyone’s beer cooler. With this high ABV, I like the mild drinkability of this brew. Not overly hoppy and good malt flavorings.

drpimento (1695) - La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA - DEC 4, 2011
Served with a nice, foamy, frothy, off white head that settled out after a bit and plenty of lace. Color is a clear dark amber. Aroma is on the mild side, malt, hop, caramel. Flavor has a lot more going on - similar to nose, plus roast, nutmeats, toffee, leather. Body and carbonation are perfect for style. Finish is like flavor, tapers off nicely and stays true. Good drinking beer. Yessir.

Pours a bronze color with a medium white head. aroma is heavy caramel, sugar, dark fruits, and hops. taste is very boozy for this amount of alcohol with heavy caramel. very thick mouthfeel but a bit sticky. overall this is a pretty good brew. Thanks for sharing JB.
