| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 6, 2003 Hmmm...is it just me or does the term "cinder cone" lead the consumer to believe that the beer is chock full of malty alchohol warming goodness? Where's the smoldering embers? The flambe de beer? Sufficently douced in cooling hop water I gather. I think the hops do a little more than simply "balance the toffee sweetness" here. Very hoppy actually, the malt was very subdued - a bit hidden but kind of complex and definitely tasty. Deschutes adds another hop bomb to the Pacific Northwest amber market. leaparsons (4748), Leicester, Leicestershire, England
