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

22 oz Bottle -- Off-white head, dark amber color. Malts are heavy, providing a fuller bodied long lasting taste. A little sourness on the back-end. There is a good amount of hops but it is not as bitter or biting as I thought it would be from the nose.

Bottle from Green’s Discount. Pours a pretty red brown, mahogany color. A malt-heavy nose with a strong dose of hops as well. Toasted aroma too with hints of nuts and citrus. So much going on the palate is almost overwhelmed. Caramel flavored malts, hoppy bitterness, floral and citrus notes just to name a few. A nice, but not overwhelming alcohol-laced finish. Flavors linger on the tongue after each mouthful. I knew from the site before I bought it this beer was going to be good but it exceeds my expectations. Excellently flavorful beer.

Truely lucky to find this one. Instantly became a fan with the great balance of malts and hops on the nose. Creamy texture of toffee, caramel with the piney, citric notes. How long could this age?

From Norm’s Beer and Wine. I am a big fan of Lagunitas in general. Beer is a nice red color, with a sweet malty aroma. Flavor is decently malty with a good amount of hops. I like this beer, but maybe I’m not into hops as much as others.

A Mes rate: Bottle at GBBF.
A good clean rich amber body with a thick beige head. Big, sweet and fruity malt. Good caramel and burnt sugar notes but not too overpowering, mainly held in check by the resinous bitter finish. Good mouthfeel, excellent length and flavour development. Excellent all round. I really like these Lagunitas barley wine / American strong ales. Quality.

Deep gold, strong head and lacing. Aroma is hoppy and citrus peel. Nearly perfect body - strong malt perfectly balanced with a grapefruit bitterness. Maybe it’s the label, but I feel the need to listen to some rockabilly now.
