Duvelfan (94) - Getxo (Basque Country), - JUN 15, 2013
Botella de 12 fl. oz. Excelente relación calidad-precio en esta cerveza. Color ámbar. Espuma media, duradera. Aromas a frutos secos, madera, como una buena amber. En boca se confirman los olores. Un amargor muy muy sutil. Su baja graduación la hacen una cerveza ideal para una sesión de amigos.

Anderson Valley Boont Amber Ale is solid but not particularly outstanding. Pour is dark amber and cloudy. Aroma is light hops. Taste is a nice balance of malt and hops - - kind of like the IPA but milder on the hops. This amber ale is a decent session beer and a decent ale.

Fatehunter (794) - Corbett, Oregon, USA - JUN 7, 2013
A finger of head on a slightly hazy medium straw colored body. The aroma is quite different: lots of apricot with a little grapefruit. Really nice. The taste has a nice grain flavor with sweet citrus, mild bitterness to finish. The texture is crisp with moderate carbonation. It’s a great amber ale for sure and quite drinkable.

I had this at Global Brew. I thought this was good, a average amber ale. I could drink this again. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

SirRepsol (134) - Cologne, GERMANY - MAY 31, 2013
from bottle. pours a clear, slightly hazy bright brown colour with a good looking white frothy head that lasts for quite a while. sweet aroma of dark dried fruits and roasted malts. average carbonation, light to medium body and watery mouthfeel. sweet, unbalanced and kind of artificial flavours of malts, dark fruits and earth. not the worst but not the best beer around...

Brouwerij (501) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - MAY 30, 2013
Can. Pours a slightly hazy darker copper with pillowy khaki light tan head. Decent retention with thin lacing. Aroma is hoppy, resinous, citrus, malty, and nutty. Smells quite hoppy for an amber ale. Flavor is malty, toffee up front, fades into mild hop bitterness and a slightly nutty finish with a bitter, malty aftertaste. Hop comes through more in the aroma than the flavor. Soft carbonation, medium body, and smooth texture. Drinkable, smooth, balanced.

OKplus (558) - Oklahoma, USA - MAY 28, 2013
A - Pours a slightly hazed amber with a cream colored head that provides mild lacing. S - Loads of caramel malt, the yeast is doughy and a bit tangy smelling. Mild citrus hops. T - Lightly toasted malt, sweet caramel backed with some spicy citrus hops. Doughy bread and butterscotch comes out as it warms. Finishes with a bit of acidic astringency. M - A medium lush body, creamy and smooth feel. The caramel dominates and the yeast adds character. Nice body and easy going down. The astringent finish is the only flaw. A good drinking Amber ale.

geophagus (156) - Lubin, POLAND - MAY 26, 2013
Brown, untransparent, hazy color. Small, beige, fast falling head. Medium body, medium carbonation, oily texture. Aroma: Modrate sweet, caramel malts, dark bread, moderate hoppiness (resin, citrus), minimal alcohol. Taste: Malty, caramel and toasted malts, a bit sweet, soft increasing in time bitterness, medium long, caramel finish with medium, pleasant bitterness. Maybe a bit sour aftertaste.

Amber reddish appearance, good head, caramel flavor, smooth and well rounded, but not too outstanding.
