Commercial Description:
From the first day of the first mash of the first recipe in the first space to this oasis 13 years on the road; We have worked hard to walk in the footsteps of our hero brewers. The Esteemed brewer of California's best Pale Ale, the Noble Brewer of the planet's only legal Steam Beer, and Oregon's Rebel Brewer from Newport. Thirteen years down the road, we have found our own voice as brewers but our admiration for the Great Ones has not dimmed one bit. If we walked well down the hero's path ourselves, perhaps we too have been an inspiration for others. Beer is a Bronze Age business and we feel honored to have left our footprints on its path into history, at the same time leaving our flavors on your buds. Thanks for your trust over the years and we hope you enjoy this specially brewed Hi-Gravity Auburn offering. Beer Speaks. People Mumble! O.G. 1.085 76.92 IBU

Pint at RnH. Pour is brown with red hue. Nose is hoppy, citrus, alcohol, bit of pine. Flavors are malt, spice, caramel and hop. Decent with food.

Bomber! Pours reddish-brown with not much of a head. Strong aroma of bread and caramel with a backdrop of hops and EtOH. Unexpected amounts of citrus/pine hops upfront melts into a sweet biscuity finish. Booze is hidden well. Light carbonation and a slightly syrupy body. Tasty stuff!

Botlte @ Bar Volo: Pours a cloudy copper, good foamy off-white head. Nose is boozy, buttery, copper, toffee and very hoppy. Flavour is caramel, butterscotch, whiskey, grass. Great red ale.

Bomber courtesy of Cavie poured into a snifter. Pours clear red with a nice thick white head. Aroma is all hops... Some pine and a bit cat pee. Also a hint of alcohol. The flavor is big malt sweet up front and follows with a cascade of hops, some flavor and a good dose of bitter. Big sticky body and medium carbonation.

Serving: 22 oz. bottle. Appearance: Deep opaque amber with a small, creamy, off-white head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma: You can smell this one as soon as you pop the top. Ripe fruit, grass, herbal notes, citrus, a little alcohol, and light brown sugar. It smells great! Taste: Hop forward with lots of citrus and herbal notes. Aggressive bitterness that is a little on the acrid side. Honey, brown sugar, and a slight hint of toasted malt try to balance things out, but this one still leans to the hops. Floral and perfume notes emerge as the beer warms. The flavor isn’t quite as harmonious as the nose, but is still worthwhile. Palate: Medium-low, very fine carbonation with a medium, slightly dry mouthfeel. Medium-long, bitter finish. Overall: A pretty good strong ale. The nose creates high expectations that the taste falls just short of. Still, it’s not bad, just not great. If you are a fan of DIPAs, this is a welcome change of scenery. Rebuy: Worth trying once, but I probably won’t go back to it.

Sample @ RNH: nice hoppy feel, unfortunately some metallic tastes coming up... Some caramel, nice carbonation and esters... Unexpected grassy finish.
