Commercial Description:
Our head brewer’s second signature beer, the dark bronze colored ale starts full-bodied with rich caramel malt swimming in bountiful hop character leading to a dry finish amid hints of alcohol heat. This Pacific Northwest interpretation of an English-style strong ale combines the malty characteristics of a winter warmer with a generous hop rate.

Dark amber body, thin dense creamy tan head. Dried fruits and spices. some ripe fruits and a subdued floral tone. Alcohol among sweet malts with a very bitter roof of the mouth. Cleans up quickly and well. Smooth mouthfeel initially. Good balance and decent complexity.

On tap at the 2003 Great Alaska Beer and Barley Wine Festival. Deep orange color with foamy off-white head and a warm, hoppy nose. Very smooth out of the keg with a strong hop bitterness and maybe not strong enough on the malts. Reminded me more of a good Northwest IPA.

A decent strong ale, done the way I like it. Malty, but not overdone. (I’m so exited I am the second person to rate this right behind Oakes!)

I almost hate to put such a fantastically descriptive rating down but here goes: good, complex, malt-accented strong ale. Helpful, ain’t it?
