My Opinion Of The Beers That I've Tried:
14.0 points overall

• Blackberry
  Style 21 - Fruit / Vegetable Beer
  • Beer #31-2546, at the brewery, August 15, 1992
    It's a Porter. Can't taste the fruit.

• Dark
  Style 9 - Porter
  • Beer #31-2548, at the brewery, August 15, 1992
    Good smooth dark ale. Doesn't taste very strong, though.

• ESB
  Style 7 - English Bitter
  • 15 points - Beer #8-564, Great American Beer Festival XIII, Denver CO, October 22, 1994
    Hazy.

  • Beer #31-2547, at the brewery, August 15, 1992
    Not bitter enough to be called an ESB, but not bad.

• Light
  Style 6 - American-style Pale Ale
  • Beer #31-2545, at the brewery, August 15, 1992
    Good microbrewery pale. Good pizza beer.

• Nut Brown Ale
  Style 4 - Mild / Brown Ale
  • Beer #31-2549, at the brewery, August 15, 1992
    "High in flavor but low in alcohol" - ain't that the truth.

• Steelhead Kölsch
  Style 18 - German-style Ale
  • 13 points - Beer #4-234, 1993 Oregon Brewers Festival, Portland OR, July 31, 1993
    Dark yellow. Looks like a Kölsch. Very fruity aroma. Not much malt. Lots of European hop flavor. Malt still pretty faint.
