Casual moderate-bodied amber-hued German-styled blond lacks overall distinction and fruity pizzazz. Buttery pale-malted honey-roasted barley graining enjoins basic floral-hopped orange-peach-cherry tang and pastry-like sugar cookie sweetness. Vanilla, iced tea, and wet paper illusions receive tertiary whiskey-zapped ransom.

BURGERBRAU WOLNZACHER HELL
ROGUE DEAD GUY ALE
Enticing honey roasted malts, silky spiced hops, and estery dried fruits characterize terrific, full-flavored, solid-bodied helles bock. Thick yeast sinew effectively heightens residual butterscotch-candied almond glaze, wavered red cherry gleam, sugar plum sugaring, orange marmalade wisp and mild floral tinge. Beautiful chewy caramel-nut sweetness kindles elegant honeycomb finish.

SILETZ WOOLY BULLY LAGER
Closer to an expressive pale ale than an obvious lager, rusty nickel hued nomad brings feisty bruised orange sourness, lemony white peach tagline and dry cork waft to vinous grape-draped cherry pucker. Thick malt lacquering consumes floral-hopped fruit finish as recessed smoky wood tempest builds strength. Brewed by Calapooia Brewery after 2008.

Metallic clink negates citrus-y wildflower souring, cork-y dryness, and floral outline, but crisp, clean finish welcomes softer palates to summery session beer.

(CLIMAX) HOFFMANN UR-PILS LAGER
Weirdly vegetal German-styled peculiarity punctuates malted barley-wheat frontage with ambrosial citric efficiency and delicate hop bitterness. Sweet carrot, fresh asparagus, and fresh tobacco leaf illusions positively complement mineral grained earthiness.
