A couple of years ago, a friend (but not a very good friend!) gave me an
EMPTY bottle of a wine from Bully Hill Vineyards, in NY. It had a B-17 on
the label and was called, IIRC, "Flying Fortress Red."

Light Bodied Ales

Ultralight:
Style: Light bodied pilsner ale - Lightly hopped with Mt. Hood, Liberty and
Centennial. Taste profile is very light, more toward domestic styles. A good
thirst quencher. Color: light gold.

Skydiver Blonde:
Style: Dutch Blonde Ale - Light bodied golden colored ale, well balanced and
finished with a late addition of Crystal hops for a wonderful aroma. This
beer is a great thirst quencher as well as a delightful beer to sip. It is a
very popular with the specialty beer crowd because it is a light bodied, yet
full flavored beer. Skydiver Blonde was inspired by a delightful Dutch
Blonde Ale. It Is good with chicken, fish and other light foods and snacks.

Huckleberry N' Honey:
Style: Light Bodied Ale - A light and refreshing drink with the aroma and
flavor of mountain fresh huckleberries. Some say it reminds them of
champagne. Color: Light straw.

Medium Bodied Ales

Good Medicine Brown Ale is an "unfiltered" American Brown - Good Medicine is
by every sense of the word, an English Brown. However, because we dry hop
and leave the beer unfiltered, I feel the style should more apt be called an
American Brown. Dry hopping with Cascade hops add a delightful floral / malt
aroma. The results; a very soft, non-filling, beverage that explodes with
flavor once on the plate. Color: Nut Brown.

Taildragger Honey Wheat is an Honey Wheat Ale. Malted wheat, barley and pure
Montana (Bitterroot Valley) honey and a balance of Perle, Mt Hood and
Cascade hops make this Honey Wheat one to die for. Taildragger is not the
typical light bodied, sweet style you would expect. Taildragger is excellent
with a variety of foods - also a great sipping beer. Color: Straw Gold.

Windsock Pale Ale Style:
American Pale Ale. Windsock Pale Ale has an enticing fruity, spicy flavor
with a solid level of bitterness from beginning to end. This Pale Ale is a
lovers beer, dubbed by a Seattle Tavern Owner as the " Best Pale Ale in
bottles today. "Windsock is a blend of two row pale, crystal and carastan
malts, accented with Mt Hood and Centennial hops. A great beer with most
foods, especially a plate of Nachos. *** ( The Brewmaster makes his pancakes
with Windsock)*** Color: Straw Gold.

Full Bodied Ales

Tri-Motor Amber:
Style: English Amber Ale. Tri-Motor Amber is a full bodied, rich tasting
amber ale. This was Michael Jackson's (the beer expert from London, not the
singer) favorite beer when he visited the brewery in Nov. of '96. Tri-Motor
is delightful blend of pale, crystal, carastan and chocolate malts balanced
with Centennial, Cascade and Willamette hops. This amber has a creamy head
with a nutty malt character and plenty of mouth feel. It is a very
satisfying drink that is excellent with foods, especially pizza and Mexican.
Looks great in a glass. Color: Deep Red Amber.

Staggerwing Stout:
Style: Dark Ale. Staggerwing Stout: Full bodied, rich in flavor and silky in
finish from the addition of flaked oatmeal. Hardy ale typical of European
style stouts. Color: Black. O.G. 13.5P. ABW 3.8%. ABV 4.9% I.B.U. 25.
Available in 7.75 & 15.5 gal. kegs.

"All label art contains a story. The Tri-Motor label shows a Ford Tri-Motor
unloading at the Big Prairie Ranger Station, now a closed airstrip in the
Bob Marshall Wilderness. The Windsock label features a typical windsock seen
at all airports, large or small. The Taildragger Honey Wheat label pictures
a 1944 Taylorcraft L2 parked in front of the original brewery, formally
John's airplane hanger. John and Sandy's son, Mike, who is a crop duster,
owns the Taylorcraft. The Skydiver Blonde label pictures the classic
free-fall position during a jump over the Lost Prairie Drop zone. Skydivers
of Lost Prairie have been great supporters of Lang Creek from day one, so a
beer was appropriately named for them and the sport."

I saw an EMPTY(!!!) carton of Tri-Motor Amber over at the museum, this fall.
Hmm?
