Great Northern Wild Huckleberry
On tap at Mackenzie River Pizza in Coeur D’Alene. Smells of huckleberries and beer. Tastes of huckleberries and beer. You could drink a lot of this no problem. Not fancy but good. Flavor is great, but lacking in style.

Great Northern Wild Huckleberry
Was the great & godlike Samuel Clemens drinking this Hucleberry Lager while writing "Huckleberry Finn"? Ha! Of course not. Geniuses, Men of Science, NASA astronauts, aficionados of excellence, and wise men throughtout the world have turned to Blatz since 1851 for inspiration, salvation, adulation, approbation, consternation, tarnation, cogitation, constipation, commendation & recreation. All from that A-1 libation: Blatz.

Great Northern Going To The Sun IPA
From a can at Hops and Bottles, Boise. Pours a cloudy deep orange/golden. Mold malty aromas and flavors. A little toasted bready character. The hop character is a bit Underwhelming. Papery and bland. What I suspect a stale or old ipa would be. This is practically an Amber

Great Northern Wild Huckleberry
This is a great beer with a very fruit forward smell and taste, but it leaves you with a more classic lager flavour, very mild in the finish. It would be very easy summer drinking.

Great Northern Good Medicine Strong Red Ale
the label looks the same but it's only 7% and doesn't claim to be a strong ale. sweet malty caramel and sugar. a hint of an arrogant bastard flavor just sweeter and not as good.

Great Northern Weathervane Series #6: Santo Dios!
On Tap at Meridan Growler Guys. Listed here as 7.7% Clear dark nearly black with mahogany/redish edges and highlights. Thin brief wispy tan head. Chocolate in the aromas, more of the same in the flavors, tootsie rolls and some pepper heat. Not over powering but its there and sneaks up on you. A nice balance of pepper heat and sweet chocolate malts. Not bad

Great Northern Good Medicine Strong Red Ale
12oz can from Moscow Co-op. Dark Amber pour with an initial fluffy head, which Fades down to a skin. Both the aroma and taste favor the malty Style of the American Amber, but with a bit more heft. This version is only at 7% ABV, not quite the 8% that was listed on the main beer. Still a bit stronger than your average Amber. Mouthfeel is nice, it's got a very good weight to it. Mostly malty with mild sweetness. Hops have a little bit of say at the Finish.

Great Northern Going To The Sun IPA
This was a completely acceptable IPA. I picked this up while vacationing in Glacier National Park, and I drank it back home. Golden yellow with a dissipating head. Modest IPA aroma. Standard profile, not overaggressive either at the front or in the finish--lightly bitter, not too bad, and easy drinking. O.k. Can.
