Aug 12, 2008 22oz Bomber - Siletz Brewing Company - Siletz, OR
Aroma – Huge infected bottle. Very sweet to off sour aroma.
Appearance – Amber in Color, Thick head and clear.
Flavor – Nasty drain pour beer. The beer was super sour and this was not a Lambic. It was a nasty infected beer.
Palate – Terrible Mouthfeel, horrible texture with a sour finish.
Overall – One of the worst beers I have had in a long time I poured it down the drain I hope the others I got from Siletz are ok.

Aug 7, 2008 Bottle from PC Market of Choice in Ashland, OR. Now I know why they had this crap on sale for $1.99 for a 22oz. Holy Lord, this was Siletz’s version of the nasty Jelly Bellys they made for Harry Potter movies. I guess Wooly Bully was right on because this one was dead on beef (or buffalo) jerky. Yuck. I’d rather have Coors Light (you know, the dark-side!).

Jul 31, 2008 Bottle from PC Market of Choice in Ashland, OR. Not much to say about this one. I swear it almost tasted like beef jerky. Which is not all that bad of a taste, but not in a beer. It was sweet and malty. I would have poured it down the drain, but we were camping. This was a tree pour.

Jul 13, 2008 Darker golden color, almost no head, virtually no lacing or retention. Aroma is gas, sour malts, sweet malts, uh... not good. Medium bodied, sweet with a somewhat hot finish. I don’t see the point.

May 5, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, orangey body with a small, off-white head.
Smell: Here we go again! Some maltiness squelched in a sea of vinegar and unclean feet.
Taste: Just a filthy taste altogether. Malts abandoned to vinegary spoilage, what a shame. Midway into this fiasco you pick up an eerily tart, infectious fruitiness that never lets up.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Siletz is synonymous with drain pours. Different bottles from various sources and various times and they’re always infected. Siletz needs to tackle this issue once and for all or just give it up.
