NoiZe (947), Zeist, Netherlands Aug 16, 2008 Tasted somewhere along my trip through the States.
Nice, but kinda average and thin brew. HoppyGuy (105), USA Jul 19, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a tan head. A bit of a weak aroma, with some chocolate and malt. Thin taste also, with roasted barley/chocolate flavor, verging on the side of too sweet for me. I think this beer misses the balance between malts and hops. This brew won’t scare anyone away, since it has such a light body to it, and no one would accuse it of being heavy. I’m not anxious to run out and get more of it. carboloader (300), Houston, Texas, USA Jul 4, 2008 Visited brew pub in Bend, OR. Pours opaque with tan head. Delicious coffee, malt, roast flavors. Very smooth. Maybe a bit thin, but a very decent porter. cathcacr (519), Portland, Oregon, USA Jun 26, 2008 Oh damn, the aroma on this is considerably like Baba Booey’s breath. You know, that gingivitisy, awful stench that makes you think of solid human waste. I don’t advise taking a whiff of this one when drinking it, even if the rest of it is okay. Oh my god, yuck. :-(
Angeloregon (2001), Portland, Oregon, USA May 11, 2008 From a bottle at Belmont Station--Poured a dark brown body with a rich tan two-finger beige head. Spicy, sweet, liquorish nose with a decent hop presence. Quite clean on the palate, good carbonation level, and well-balanced malt sweetness to bittering finish. Yum!
