From the brewer

Whether it’s hiking a moonlit trail or sleeping under the stars, our senses are heightened in the dark. We notice the little things and discover the word anew. This complex Cascadian Dark Ale is our tribute to those moonlit experiences. This hoppy yet smooth ale is an adventure all its own.

Who's been drinking this

Nicely roasted chocolate malt flavors mix with an understated but definitely present spicy hop followthrough. This was... pointy, but balanced. I liked it.
Growler tasting at Odin Lounge
Roast chocolate and effervescence at the forefront here. I don't know if it's because the bottle is old, but the hops, while definitely present, were subdued for the style, other than in the strong, bitter finish. If you hadn't told me otherwise, I'd have guessed porter.
Sweet, tangy, and subdued. Light on the hops for a CDA but it could be due to the age of the bottle.
