Massive, rugged flavors and aromas await you in this intensely delicious brew. Piney resinous and citrus hop aromas are balanced by roast and dark chocolate malt characters. A firm hop bitterness grips you followed by mouth-filling flavors of pine and grapefruit. Through the huge forest of hops, you will find roasty, chocolate and caramel malt characters like a massive boulder field, building the backbone of this climb. Intense and complex at every turn, this beer will have you dreaming of your last grade IV mountaineering adventure!

This is mid-styled, it's either an American Black Ale or Black IPA, in any case it's a really good beer. Pours a dark coffee black in the pint glass, with a half inc head that drops quickly, but leaves a tan lacing and 'scum' over the beer. Lots of floral delicate scents on the nose with only hints of citrus. Tastes like roasted grains and slightly like coffee, much lighter on the tongue than a stout. No real malt sweetness. Overall, a very good beer.

A good Cascadian dark ale, but there are many better.
