Went to Duck Island last night and had a couple beers: Schooner Exact- Brown Ale, and Iron Horse- Rodeo Pale Ale. The brown ale was pretty decent. Lagunitas, although I hate to say this, should take a leaf out of the book of schooner Exact regarding Brown Ales. It wasn't to sweet, yet it provided that comfortable feeling we look for in a brown. They hopped it with something a tad spicy. I'm not a big brown fan but I give the schooner a definite 8 out of ten. Now the rodeo pale ale is my kind of beer. Again Iron Horse created a magnificent brew. Incredibly smooth, this was one of the best session beers I've had in a while. They hopped it with the standard Pac NW cascade and maybe amarillo (I haven't checked). Very Aromatic, very citrusy this thing left nothing to clog the palette. The next time y'all are out beer tasting and want that last beer but don't want any surprises that make you not want to finish the pint, grab the Iron Horse and you will drive (or be driven) home a satisfied man.
