I can tell that it’s good, but I just don’t like porters. It has the same caramel flavor.

Generous pour lends a nice creamy off white head atop a dark copper to red body with floaty yeast chunks about. toasted and malty sweet in the nose along with earthy, herbal sweet English hops. taste is malty sweet but not caramelly and is balalnced by a nice dose of earthy hop flavor. Bitterness is just right and does not linger. good creamy mouthfeel. nice amber of the English hop varieties.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Amber/orange beer with a small white head. A bit of a weaker amber ale from Bells. Some sugary smells here and there. Tastes like water with some caramel syrup thrown into the mix. There really was not anything else I noticed here. Average.

12oz bottle from Michigan. On the lighter side for an amber. But great flavor. Light toast character, with nice sweetness.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle via trade. Pour is an amber-orange color with lots of sediment. Frothy off-white head. Sweet aroma with sugary malts, candy and slight roast. Flavor is light malts that fade quickly. Light bodied that leaves a little dryness but not much aftertaste to speak of. A little tart.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle form Cavie. Murky amber pour with a foamy white head. Aroma is nuts, caramel, and a little sweet. Flavor is almost puckering, a little sour, some fruitiness, thin, and caramel.
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a beautiful light golden amber. I The aroma is a little too weak, smells like gentle sweet malt. Taste is dry compared to other amber ales i’ve had. It does show some sweet malt, but mostly promotes nutty and hay flavors - not bittter at all. Overall, taste is mild like the aroma, but quite pleasant and completely lacking anything offensive.
Best feature was the palate - it was amazing - the picture perfect palate for an amber ale. Overall, I really liked this beer, most because of the palate. Otherwise it was somewhat forgettable, partially because it lacks any negative qualities.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
351 mL bottle. Dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma is mild and fairly typical. Flavour solid in terms of the malt base, but needs more hop definition. Not bad, though.
