2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
A pretty decent brown ale from Snake River. I like the SR brews, but so far I haven’t found one that really "wow"ed me. I am looking forward to the Zonker Stout though, because I’ve read some really good reviews on it. Anyway back to the beer. Pours a clear reddish brown. Aroma is sort of weak. Some sweetness and toasted malt feeling in the mouth. Very casual flavours that don’t stick out a whole lot but keep this session beer on an even flow.

I really liked this one. Very malty, full of caramel malts. Very satisfying for a malt craving.

Tap at Colter Bay Village in the Grand Tetons. Took me a while to figure out what this was as it sounded like she was telling me I was drinking "Obi-Wan". This is a brown ale? Really? Paleish pour, very grainy, light, dull. Reminded me more of Yuengling than anything else... definitely not a brown. Oh well. These guys make some other more solid brews no doubt.

12oz shorty bottle. Hazy translucent amber brown. Nice foamy head. Full malt and hop taste upfront, but kind of a watery finish. Soapy, with an a caramel smoothness that borders on an artificial taste. That being said, there is a nice hop balance, and some pleasant toffee notes as well. An English body with an American hop bill. I’m sure its a different creature fresh on tap, I’d give it another shot.

Bottle from Tatooine, pilfered off the Jawa’s in exchange for a new motivator for a R-2 unit. Amber with a medium rocky tan head that fades away. Aroma of pale malts, caramel and not much else, in fact there’s not much there at all. Body is thin and light tasting with mild hops, caramel and slight nuttiness. The prickliness on the tongue from the carbonation is a bit disturbing. Next stop, Mos Eisley, I hear they have a good place to buy Solo beers.

Thanks to Todd for sharing via daknole! Hazy amber pour thick off white head. Slightly oxidized flavor. Sweet & dry flavor with some slight signs of oxidation

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Pours a murky brown with a decent, creamy, tan head. Taste is of coffee, malt, caramel and chocolate. Kind of sweet with a dry and bitter finish. Very clean and easy to drink. Aroma is much the same as the taste. Refreshing and is satisfying. Not a bad brew.
