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

Bottle as YourDarkLord’s tasting. Pours red amber with a light beige head. Aroma of fruity esters. Lighter side of medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavor of caramel, brown sugar, berry, and tea. Slightly above average sweetness. Hops have faded out of this, but surprisingly this is still an enjoyable brew (no isovaleric notes)

Opaque ruby-copper pour with a small dense white head. Sweet dark fruit and caramelized brown sugar aroma with orange peel, cherry, and pine. Lots of caramel flavor with notes of red apples, orange peel and sharp pine. Little pepperiness on the finish. A bit on the cloying side. Sticky medium body with moderate carbonation and some notable alcohol on the finish. Note: After trying to drink a glass of this for about a half an hour it became so cloying that I couldn’t finish it. Knocked my rating for flavor from 7 down to 4 because of this.

From Larry’s Liquors in Pt Roberts, WA. Bet YOU haven’t been there! A good looking beer, with a nice hazy copper body and a creamy ivory head. Aroma was a pleasing meld of malt and spices, beneath a blanket of bitter hop. Rich on the palate, almost overly so and wasn’t the finish the same. Totally enjoyable.

Clear red pour. Refreshing if a tad weak on taste. For the ABV the booze is well hidden.

Poured from bomber into glass. Clear port color, light carbonation, very little off-white head. Aroma like boozy cherries and raisins. Pretty smooth over the palate, alcohol present but not as complex as the aroma which is kind of a let-down. Still a nice beer and enjoyable.
