| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 2, 2009 had an oak aged pint from a 2004 tap nearly 5 years old, at Freds Rivertown Alehouse in Snohomish, WA. as there isn’t a separate installment for this Im rating it here.
Balanced malts and hops, but to the sweet side. nice oak spiciness. I cant compare it to the non-aged version, but this is a great find. rich42 (128), USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jan 9, 2002 Deep dark brown and some what hazy colr, brown head and decent lace that dissipates quickly. Nose is malt and the aroma of the Cascade and Chinook hops are also present. Front is malt sweet, the middle moderate as is the carbonation. The finish is hop spicy, dry, with a high abv, this is quite a treat. Gregory (357), Pullman, Washington, USA
