COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Rost (pronounced Roast) is a German word for Amber. Our Amber gets its coppery color from Pilsner. Munich and Caramel malts. Its rich malty sweetness is perfectly balanced by a slight hop finish and creamy head. O.G. 12.5 Plato 5.0% ABV

I’m shocked how low the ratings are for this beer. To me its a great amber. Tasty carmel malt. Call me crazy, but I thought it was very, very tasty.

murawski (158) - USA - JUN 4, 2006
Bottle. Nice roasty amber ale. Clear amber/brown color, very little head, and a moderately sweet aroma. Flavor has a sweet maltiness and a bit of a citrusy hint. Fairly well-balanced palate, but maybe a bit watery. Overall, pretty good.

DocLock (5776) - Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA - JUN 2, 2006
Bottle from Beer Yard variety case. The pour is dark straw colored, not going toward bornw but rather in the deep coppery/straw realm., with a 1-finger white head. Aroma of hops, tart roasty malts, some fruit, and cabernet. The flavor is very tart, with some pale malts and maibocky fruits (apricots, pears). Medium to light palate, this one isn’t as dense or fruity as a maibock, but has a tart cabernet low level feel to it in flavor and palate.

RAYBOY01 (2003) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JUN 14, 2006
Sweet caramel and toffee maltiness. Very rich, round, creamy texture. Some light citrusy notes as well. A light herbal hoppiness in the finish. Eminently drinkable.

Silphium (2711) - East Lansing, Michigan, USA - MAR 30, 2006
Orange body, hazy, medium off-white head. Toasty aroma with caramel, earthy hops, and a touch of diacetyl. Rather sharp, tart body, with caramel and lemony fruit in addition to biscuits and notes of butterscotch. Acidic and a bit funky.

NYHarvey (2153) - New York, New York, USA - OCT 31, 2006
Aroma is grassy and slightly tart. It’s a pale amber color with a thin, quickly fading, off white head. Thin, tart fruity fore with some acidity that makes me think this may be the world’s most low key Flemish Sour. Some mild hearty grain notes int he middle and the finish is again tart and acidic. This is probably not what it was meant to be and yet it is curiously enjoyable.

I was expecting some kind of amber ale and when I tasted this I was pleasantly surprised by it’s enjoyability. The smell is an off beery aroma. The look of this is somewhat like cloudy iced tea. On the palate it provides an above average creamy carbonation. The taste is haylike and fun without any bitter unsavoriness. I find it rather likable with farmlike attributes. Overall almost pleasurable and even perhaps repeatable. Pleased to have sampled this brew.
