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

Incredibly rich beer. Pours a beautiful copper with thick white head. Malty aroma and the flavor is up front malt (tons of it) and caramel with a slight smokiness and spiciness followed by an alcohol warmth and just a bit of hop bitterness in the finish. Nice beer from a wonderful brewery.

Pours a clear ruby colour with a dense tan head that leaves spotty lacing. The nose is ripe with resin-like and grapefruit hops, brown sugar and citric fruits. The flavour is a bit on the boozy side, but there is plenty of hoppy zest, pine and honey-sweet malts to back it up, though the alcohol presence in the finish is a bit much. The palate is softly, though amply carbonated with a sticky sweet body. For the price I would definitely purchase this again.

Pours a thick frothy off white head with some spotted laceing left along the sides. The color is a clear amber color and has a very floral hops aroma. The nose is kind of earthy and there are some notes of caramel malt. The initial flavor is nice and bitter with a nice bite on the tip of your lips. You can really taste the caramelized malt with that sugar that coats the side walls of your mouth. Overall it has a nice flavor with a great balance of bitterness and palatable flavor.

Pours a somewhat dark amber with a slight reddish tint. There is a sticky, sugary, sweetness in the taste and a lingering caramel-hop flavor.

Smells chewy, chalky, woodsy, and heavy. Pours a bright red, with tan lacing. Decent carbonation and mouthfeel, and is less chewy than I expected after the aroma. Tastes much better than it smells too, and is nicely balanced.

Bomber. A great beer, plain and simple. Tastes like a cross between Brown Shugga and Censored Kronik Copper Ale. Nice sweet honey, brown sugar, citrus, and hop flavors are present and eager. Lingering bitter palate, with slight esoghageal burn due to the well-masked 8.3%. Excellent overall. Will be looking for again. Thanks Lagunitas.

Well hidden ABV on this Strong. Big PNW hop nose. Flavors are pine and grapefruit with equally robust caramel/toffee profile. Quite a nice surprise and will look for it again.
