scraff (1612), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Apr 16, 2008 Dark copper, off white creamy head. Toasted caramel and grainy cereal aromas warm to light notes of pineapple iced tea. Fruity tea notes and earthy caramel flavors round with a soft hop finish. Light to medium bodied, medium carbonation, soft bittersweet finish. Easy drinking and probably a good cross-over brew for your swill drinking friends...
Bungalo22 (218), Bridgeport, Connecticut, USA Jul 17, 2008 Pours a dark orange/brown with a small head. really one of the nicer looking ales I have seen. A nice sweet malty back round. Very smooth on the palate with a slight sweetness. I am not a huge Ale fan unless they are really good and this one is right up there. Avery does not disappoint. GJF (190), Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA Jul 6, 2008 I’m not always an amber fan, mostly because it’s one of those "styles" that can mean whatever some wants it to mean. That said, this is a really drinkable beer (regardless of whatever style it fits). Sweet aroma, big malty body, good hop follow through. Avery hits it again. A_R (271), Georgia, USA Jul 6, 2008 Deep amber in appearance. This is a very solid beer with a good mouthfeel. There is a good balance between the hops and malt, with both having there own notable appearance. kwoeltje (1176), Manchester, Missouri, USA Jul 6, 2008 (bottle) Fairly dark amber with small head. Mild malt aroma. Flavor is biscuit/caramel malt, slightly sweet, with somepine hops in the finish. astrofrk (27), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Jul 6, 2008
