Rock Art Whitetail Ale


WHITETAIL ALE Our golden American ale has a crisp body and slighly
dry, hoppy finish. This is a real treat for the beer lover. Pale, wheat and
torrified wheat malts are used with Northern Brewer and Mt. Hood hops. Available
in 6 packs.


I really liked this one it was smooth and very drinkable. a slight wheat tast but not too over powering. (lack of detail due to having drank this beer last month, sorry :-P )

Rock Art Ameican Red Ale

My next Rock Art beer was the :


AMERICAN RED ALE
The unofficial name for this beer is "Super Glide". Malty rich with a hint of spicy hops and roasted grains. This beer is one smooth ride with a clean finish! We brewed this one with American Pale, oats, flaked barley, black,chocolate, red malt, melandolin malt. American hops include Magnum, Centennial,Liberty and Crystal.

The was a hoppy beer too, although not as hoppy as the IPA it was still a little too over powering. It ha a decent drinkability and the hoppyness when lessened after a few.

Rock Art Ridge Runner

Next is the :

RIDGE RUNNER Mild Barleywine
Strong, Dark and Smooth, hold on to your hat cause you’ll lose your feet on this one!" Brewed with pale, dark crystal, Munich, flaked barley, black and chocolate malts. Hops include Cascade, Crystal, Challenger and Perle. " 6 malts...4 hops, no wonder you can’t tell its 7.2%.

This one was a nice beer. It was a light flavored beer with a hint of citrus flavor which didn't seem to belong. Over all not too bad

Rock Art IPA

Ok my next brewery was Rock Art Brewery.

INDIA PALE ALE"Ah taste and smell the hops!" A hoppy ale that is mildly bitter. Brewed with the finest pale malt available and a touch of flaked barley. Cascade hops are used to make a hop tea that is added directly to the brite tank for a Rock Art twist on an age old favorite.


My first beer was the India Pale Ale (IPA). I was a decent beer but the "taste of hops" was a little too much for me it seemed to make the beer just bitter. I've had other IPA and have not like them so this might be a personal taste thing.
