Reid	3.5 Cascade Lakes This IPA 12 oz. single can bought from Trader Joe in Salem OR. $1.60 Pours a slightly hazed orange body with a small odd white head. Aroma of floral and piney hops and strong caramel style malts. Taste similar to the aroma. An old style Oregon IPA. Mouth feel average for style. Gets a little sticky in the end unfortunately. OK old style Oregon beer. Sunday, November 14, 2021

improvjock	3.2 Cascade Lakes Salted Caramel Porter Can. Pours a black with very little tan head. Aroma heavy on the caramel, a little butter. Flavor is a bit lackluster. Definitely some sweetness, but not as smooth as I wanted. A bit disappointing. Wednesday, July 21, 2021
jgb9348	3.7 Cascade Lakes Pineapple IPA Ever so slightly hazy peach and orange coloured body with a nice, two to three centimetre tall, just off-white head that stays afloat, but is pretty large-bubbled. Aroma of deep pineapple, tropical fruits and a lot of dank, fairly resinous hop notes with some malt and alcohol right behind. Medium-bodied; Rich pineapple and guava flavours dominate with a little bit of malts, but mainly a fruity, tropically vibe that hits, especially towards the end. Aftertaste shows the pineapple, dank hops and rich alcohol and sweetness, but less of the malts and pungency, especially at the end. Overall, this one is a nice and very pineappley, tropically beer with less of a traditional hoppiness from the hops, but more of a new school, but very island-ish themed beer that is easy-drinking, yet full-of-flavour. Great to sample, especially super fresh and without keeping it at all. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Belmont Station in Portland, Oregon on 28-March-2021 for US$2,79 sampled in my hotel room here in San Francisco, California, just before leaving from Spring Break 2021 with my wife and kids on 03-April-2021. Saturday, June 12, 2021
solidfunk	2.6 Cascade Lakes Lotus Noble hops and some straw. Drinks well enough for a pilsner. Golden pour with decent head. A strain of sour citrus, which cloys on aftertaste. Can. Saturday, May 15, 2021
bpreo	2.7 Cascade Lakes Salted Caramel Porter A very sweet Porter. Decent amount of alcohol, but could be stronger to really bring out the flavor. Thursday, November 26, 2020
Dogbrick	3.6 Cascade Lakes Hazy IPA This beer is a hazy reddish-orange color with a medium off-white head that dissipates steadily to an outer ring. Stringy lacing.

Decent overall. Wednesday, October 28, 2020

KansaiBeerLvrs	3.6 Cascade Lakes Salted Caramel Porter Cascade Lakes Salted Caramel Porter 5.8% 37 IBUs A sweet artificial caramel toffee aroma, smooth medium to light body it’s a surprisingly bitter dark chocolate flavor before you get a dab of caramel though the salt comes through strongly in the finish. Pretty good. Monday, August 31, 2020
IndianaRed	3.2 Cascade Lakes OG Kush On Tap Clear deep golden, thin wispy white head. Standard/classic pale malts a bit of cereal, muted piney hop flavors and aromas. Medium body and fair bitterness at the end. Standard pale ale, if maybey a bit malty/heavy. Not Bad Monday, July 20, 2020
KansaiBeerLvrs	3.4 Cascade Lakes Pineapple IPA Cascade Lakes Pineapple KUSH IPA with Pineapple 7.1% Clear deep gold with a floral fruity piña colada tropical aroma I quite liked. The taste is earthy perfumey pineapple, after the very attractive aroma the taste is more rind than flesh, bummer. Tuesday, June 30, 2020
KyotoLefty	3.5 Cascade Lakes Salted Caramel Porter Can from KBL. Caramel nose, coffee, chocolate, light roast. Black, with a low, airy head. Salted caramel comes through big, with roasted coffee and dark chocolate. A bit too sweet, but not crazy. Body is a bit light. Slightly roasty finish. Not bad at all, even if not really what I want. Tuesday, June 30, 2020
KansaiBeerLvrs	3.5 Cascade Lakes OG Kush I don’t think I’ve had anything from this brewery before. Cascade Lakes OG KUSH Hoppy Pale Ale 5.3% IBU 48 Copper gold with minimal foam and a woodsy piney aroma rather than over the top dankness I expected from the name. Simple piney woodsy bitterness and balancing sweet slightly caramel malt sweetness. Maybe a bit of heat damage but generally an alright old skool west coast hoppy beer. Monday, June 29, 2020

coasternut	3.8 Cascade Lakes Pure Dead Brilliant Maple Scotch Ale Rated 1-11-2020. Had at the brewery. Very nice beer except I'm not really into the maple flavored Ales. I like maple flavor as I have some maple syrup that was aged in bourbon barrels, which is delicious. A little less maple flavor and this would be excellent. Saturday, January 11, 2020
