Jan 20, 2007 NorCal tasting Jan 06 - This was the 5th of 5 Sun Valley beers brought back by a taster. This was beer was okay with me. Nothing too good or too bad with it. An aroma on the small side of tihngs. Nothing really big here, just a sweet caramel aroma. Appearance was brown in color, clear with minimal head. Medium bodied with a clean finish. Flavor was crackers and caramel.

Jun 14, 2009 Ah! An American brew that’s not loaded in hops - quite a nice change. Reddish copper brew that poured a very small cap, but with all the fine effervecanse, a small but thick tan cap was retained thoughout the entire glass. Nice messy lacing. The aroma is refreshing with an adequate ammount of roasted malts and caramel with notable fruitness and mild hops. Taste seems pretty good initially but quickly goes bland as it cannot hold its flavour. More caramel malts. I’m not convinced if at the very very end of the taste there is a hint of metallic flavour or alcohol....I can’t decide. Mouthfeel is quite full and smooth. Medium bodied or just below. Finishes with a faint but nice bitterness.

Mar 28, 2009 2/7/09 From the bottle. Aroma is malt forward with moderate caramel and simple, with a moderate, almost noble hop background. Appearance is clear gold with a well maintained white head. Flavor is sweet, but no caramel malt forward, watery, with medium grainy sourness and very low bittering. Mouthfeel is low bodied with a moderate carb texture. Overall, quite weak in all regards, tastes watered down.

Jun 25, 2007 Draft at Old Boise Brewfest: Pours a lighter amber color with a large white head. Nose is caramel and malt, even a bit earthy. Tastes subdued with light malt presence and kind of sweet. Maybe try a little hops next time?

Apr 20, 2008 Pours red with an off white head. Smells of earth, some tea. Tastes of sweet malt, some hints of spice. Meh!
