Deschutes | Ale, Less than $10

"In a sea of hundreds of IPA's that make up Binny's shelves, this is one catch that is memorable. Why? Because its not over the top - a blend of 6 hops and 80 IBU's are restrained by a huge dose of Carastan malts. Want an IPA you can drink more than a few of without annihilating your pallet and filling you up too much? Give Inversion a shot."

"Far from the most popular Deschutes offering, but close to the most unique. Closer to a witbier than an IPA, yet too hoppy to be a witbier, and too spiced to be an IPA. At times you will feel as if you are drinking one or the other. Even though there are only a few out there, this is the best version of a White IPA on our shelves."

"This is base camp, where any craft brew exploration begins. A distinct hop nose and hop-forward flavor make Mirror Pond the quintessential Pale Ale. It is aromatically complex, multi-layered, and unmistakably “right.”

The two breweries that arguably feature the two premier porters on our shelves (Edmund Fitzgeralg & Black Butte, respectively) decided to brew an imperial smoked porter to commemorate both of their 25th brewing anniversaries. That being said, how could this beer be anything short of spectacular? Don't expect it to taste like either of their porters though, this will probably be the smokiest thing you have ever tried outside of Schlenkerla Rauchbier.

"With a dark beer as our first and flagship brand, Black Butte defined Deschutes as a radical player. A slight hop bitterness up front enhances the distinctive chocolate and roasted finish. It’s prized for its creamy mouthfeel and intense complex flavors."

"A lighter, yet full-flavored, aromatic Ale for the long days of summer. Twilight’s solid malt foundation pairs with distinctive Amarillo hops for flavors every bit as intriguing as bigger, heavier ales. A back porch, lingering sunset wonder."

"The citrus punch of a big IPA, minus the one-dimensional hop sledgehammer. Seven select European and domestic malts round out the edges for a complex, copper-colored brew. Like its namesake ski lift, it’s an insider’s ride to fresh thrills."

"Hop Henge Experimental IPA is our annual exercise in IBU escalation. An outrageous amount of Centennial and Cascade hops are added to each barrel, with a heavy dry-hop presence as well. It is dense and muscular, with a blend of crystal, pale and carastan malts creating an overall biscuity characteristic. It’s all hop, no apologies."
