Draft at the Rogue Public House in Astoria - Poured a cloudy copper in color with a medium light tan head. Aroma was of citrus hops. Flavor was quite hoppy with a nice citrus/grapefruit. Some caramel malt to balance the hop bitterness. Excellent drinking brew...

Amber color with a rather large white head. Light hop aroma with hints of malt and citrus. Mildly hoppy flavor with a nice malt balance. Kind of reserved for a Rogue. Very easy drinking.

Bottle 12 oz. Brown color with full off-white head that diminished slowly. Roasted malt aroma. Medium body. Well balanced malt flavor with a medium pleasing bitter finish. Very enjoyable drinkable brew.

This does a handsome pour, clear amber in color with a rocky white head. The aroma is malty with apples and pears and a balancing herbal hopping. Very smooth in the mouth and all the way down the throat, the flavor reflects the aroma, leaving a light herbal, bitter finish. Nice drink.

12oz bottle from the fridge. It was WAY too cold at 31°, so I poured it and let it sit in the Duvel tulip for a while. It poured orange/red with a 1/2" off white head. No sedimentation apparent. Now at 44°, I’ll give it a taste. Honey malt nose with some hops notes. Smells good. Taste is caramel malts with some light floral hops, maybe a touch of apricot, and a mild bitterness. The finish is dry, with some more bitterness coming through. The body is full. I find this very enjoyable, it would make a good session beer.

Red-amber. Nice fruit and hop smell. Floral hops like an IPA but does have a nice malt touch but not alot of complexity in flavor. Slight peach hints. Bitter end.
