Our tribute to the historic Boston Marathon. This dark ale goes the distance with a slightly malty taste, dash of chocolate flavor, and incredible notes of Chinook hops that keep pace from start to finish.

Nice malt taste with a hint of chocolate and not overly strong hops, very good beer. This is my wife's favorite style of beer, and she really likes this one. Very good beer, though I personally prefer a NW Red Ale myself, though the hops can't be too strong. 40 IBUs Rated 1-13-2019

I had this beer on nitro-tap. The appearance was flawless. Flavor was fairly decent, matching up to the Amber style ale. Definitely recommend it, especially with the Nitro.

I had this beer on-tap in a pint glass at the Hillside in Seattle.

Appearance: very rich dark red hue with a finger of creamy tan foam. Very attractive.

Smell: bready and light with not a lot of complexity. It's alright.

Taste: bready and toasty with a nice smoothness for the style. Not bad.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a good carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: a decent example of the style. Worth a try.
