Apr 26, 2006 4 oz sampler at the brewpub, 4/14/06: Finally, something good. Bright red with a ncie hoppy aroma. Silky smooth and relatively hoppy. More of an IPA than a "strong ale" ... good, but misnamed.

Mar 4, 2006 Draught at 4th Annual Wildland Firefighters Benefit & Festival. At the Pumphouse in Longmont, CO. Sample in a pint glass. The beer pours a clear, medium, amber color with a large, frothy, beige, mostly and quickly diminishing head. The aroma is heavily malty with notes of cooke, caramel, and moderate amounts of toasted grain; Trace hop note of green grass; Trace miscellaneous note of vanilla. The flavor is moderately bitter with a long, heavily bitter, grippy-piney finish. The body is light, the texture is watery and the carbonation is fizzy.

Nov 6, 2005 Creamy, lasting heat atop a glowing brick red clear body. Light aroma of hops, roasted malt. Solid hops, not bitter at all. Dominating alcohol. Good frothy, velvety mouthfeel. Finish is bitter and slightly sour.
