Beer luvvas,
It's hot again in Phoenix. I'm afraid that we'll soon be hitting the 100s and it won't stop until September. But, not all hope is lost. I recently sampled Deschute's new spring brew: Cascade Ale. My original intent was to leave these quaffs to Freebird since the IPAs currently filling our fridge tend to bring on her "Bitter Beer Face," and nobody wants that!
However, after spending a day on Saguoro Lake, I felt the need for a thirst quencher as described on the neck of the bottle:
A Northwest original. Cascade Ale is clean and crisp with an herbal hop character and smooth malt profile. A light-hearted citrus finish makes it the perfect thirst quencher.
And I must agree! There was just enough malt to make Cascade more flavorful than a standard summer brew. However, Freebird and I both prefer Cinder Cone which is still unavailable in Phoenix! I don't understand why. We got it last year!
On one other note, multiple Portland Bloggers have reviewed the new Deschutes Pub in the Pearl. Check out Beervana, and our latest add to the beer drinking reading list, It's Pub Night.
Prost to Deschutes!
