Jan 15, 2009 Pour: 12 oz bottle to pint glass. Clear mahogany with nice red accents. Rocky beige head, no lacing.
Nose: Cocoa powder, toasted bread, caramel. Rather sweet aroma.
Mouth: Semisweet chocolate, toast, chicory, a little roast. Some piney hops impart a modest but noticeable bitterness in the finish. Light in body, and a bit light in flavor too. Definitely needs a bigger malt profile to keep from being watery.

Oct 27, 2008 A little bit too watery for both a brown and a deschutes brew, but it does have a really nice pour with a big ol’ head that dissipates slowly. Very biscuity, kind of bland.

Sep 5, 2008 on tap at papago... clear woody brown pour with a pillowy light beige head and some horizontal lacing. distinct aroma of baking powder/biscuits with notes of wood, caramel and toasted walnuts. the flavor has an acidity/astringency similar to baking powder as well... combined malt/grain but little to no residual sweetness and a dry slightly spicy finish. there’s a bitterness and coffee-like quality in the aftertaste. light to medium body. meh.

Jun 29, 2008 Pours a light brown with an off-white head. Caramel, roasted malt, biscuits, hops, and a bit of toasted nuts and chocolate. Not an amazing brown, but not bad and easy to drink.
