Features a medium amber body, balanced with a modest amount of Willamette hops. This spring ale is highly drinkable, flavorful and finishes clean and crisp.

This was a bomber to celebrate the 20th anniversary release.

Poured out a clear dark golden color with a nice head that left some lacing afterward.

Aroma was of floral hops and honey mostly. Some malts can be detected as well. The nose was good, but it just seemed to be a tad too light.

Taste was better than the nose. A good balance of hops and malts with a nice undertone of honey in the background. Nothing was too overpowering either. The finish was the sweet side, but in a pleasant way.

Carbonation was in check. Mouthfeel was light to light-medium.

A nice summer beer and I'm glad I tried it. I might look for another bomber or two before they disappear for good, again.
