12 oz bottle. This brew poured a nice rusty amber color, head was off white, big and froathy. Nose was hoppy, with some caramel and a hint of orange zest. Would love to try this brew again.

350 mL bottle. Copper red color with creamy white head, sweet caramel aroma, tangy full bodied palate, caramel sweetness with a hint of citrus and a floral hoppy bitterness to the finish. Decent.

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.
