On tap at Gulf Coast Grill in San Diego. Decent looking, drinkable amber. Not bad not great easy going down.

Draught at brewery. Typical malty flavor with watery body. Does not stand out.

Bottle. Pours an amber color with a medium frothy white head. The aroma is very malty. Not much going on with the taste with this one, but easy to drink. still prefer turbodog from abita.

Very nice amber color at the pour. I enjoy the generous look the bubbles give...nice white head that is of decent proportion..although it disappears fast. The aroma is subtle malty...taste is a hint of malty and a twinge bitter....nothing offensive in this brew. The beer is very drinkable and I rather enjoy it

This is the best amber in the market and if you don’t think so than you must be a northener cause us southerns eat it up its great.

Bottle. I was somewhat disappointed in this one too. I like lagers but, this is far from exceptional. OK caramel taste and a decent head but, again nothing exceptional

Light amber color, very clear. Pleasant taste, very smooth, light malt and mildly sweet.

Pours a very dark reddish gold or a light amber color. Lighter than most ambers I have seen, so maybe it’s a regional thing. The aroma was pretty plain...nothing offensive, but not too exciting. The flavor was in fact pretty exciting. Very smooth and creamy in mouthfeel, I tasted vanilla ice cream with hot caramel drizzled over the vanilla cream. Not too sweet, but rather pretty nicely balanced with some hoppy kick in the background. Definitely one of the best ambers I’ve had so far.
