3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: MAR 11, 2007 Oh yeah they call this an Alt beer. I remember a spicy dryness. Not really an Alt beer. Had this at Calgary’s Millennium Mirco Brewery Stampede. Page 15 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide and only 199 of his Classic Brews to go.

I’ve been hearing about Alaskan Amber for ages. It seems to be the "Fat Tire" of the Northwest. Lets see if the rumors are true.
Deep Red.
Very pleasant mulched apple aroma covering grapes, toasted grain and sweet malts.
This is a very good Alt. The fruitiness comes abound first. It’s all over the palate and oh so pleasant. Caramel and sweet malts next. The finish makes you know it’s an Alt beer. It’s crisp, clean, dry and nutty. The hops are minimal but balance this beer well.
I’m very surprised with this offering. Nice stuff.

Nice amber color.... the head is gone fairly fast. This beer is very sweet... light hops. This is a overall good beer. Especially if you like it a bit sweet.

From Juneua to the Sahar in Las vegas and back to Winnipeg. What a small world. Finally solved the mysterey of this beer being labeled Paco’s at the Sahara. Liked this one a lot. Would have it again (just in smaller quantities)

delicious session brew for a great price. decent little hop profile, and nice cerealy and caramely malts, very light, almost a lager yest taste. good drinker and the price is right at 2.99 a bomber.

#900! And while this may not be the most exciting beer. Nor does it have extremely high gravity or a vintage dating, I have been looking forward to trying this beer for some time now. Honey amber hued. Tight ring of off-white head. Red fruity notes wrapped up in a caramel bready aroma. Medium bodied with wonderfully sweet smooth malts. Mild bitterness and a moderately long tingling finish. Really nice citrus and berry acidity. Grapefruity undertones in the finish. Wonderful opportunity to try this beer! Great milestone!

Draught. High creamy off-white and lasting head. Clear amber body. Sweet fruity alcohol aroma. Fruty bitter flavor without the alcohol indicated by the aroma. High carbonation. Long aftertaste.

GABF 06. Amber in color obviously. Aroma is caramel malt, with some hops. Taste is caramel with a good hop balance and a clean finish.
