Draft at Hood RIver Hops Fest 2007. An unclear brown beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet matly with light notes fo butter, leading to a dry bitter finish.

Bright dark copper colour. Caramel and earth-accented aroma with woody hop notes. Herbal, fruity hop accent with light balancing earthy, chewy malts. Quite a well-made example while staying true to the mellowness of the style.

Crystal clear copper body with off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit, caramel. Not especially bitter. Light-medium body.

<i>Sampled draught at Mt Hood Brewing, Government Camp</i><br />Amber color, tan head, nice lacing. Nose of grassy hops & gingerbread malts. Nicely caramelly with a balanced finish. Eh.

Brown ale light appearance: brown and rusty colors, a little darker than the beer in the picture to the left. Another berer with a tinny copper nose. The texture on this one is very good: coarse and wet with some good tasty resiny dark hops, sweet appl,es and overall some good malt sweetness. Not bad for a typical amber ale.
