Lovely dark amber brew with an ample foam in the St. Bernardus globe. A nice veil of lacing along the glass. The whiff of Concord grapes is distrinctive. Spritzy on the tongue.

Rich and warm with malt. Moderate bitterness. Some fruit and toasted malt flavors. More than a hint of white wine, like a sweet Reisling. I'm not sure the Cascades come through as fragrantly here as with other beers, but it's grapey and appley.

An interesting fresh hop variation. It's great to see brewers going to the hard work of growing their own hops: varieties are Nugget & Cascade grown on the Ruhstaller Farm & Yard in Dixon, California. From the 22 oz bottle purchased at Bottlecraft on India St. in San Diego.
