Pours amber with a white head and malty aroma. Flavor is sweet, of malts and grains, and finishes crisp and bitter. Nicely balanced and good tasting beer, but nothing too speciall
4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Ok my second bells ever. I got it in a little package and was like a kid in a candy store.
This beer looked amazing when I poured it into a clear pint. It glowed red Cooper with a thick finger high head that ran away quickly to a white lace
The smell was good. Not to strong or over powering.
Taste was a little sweet with a follow up of light bitters. I think there is a very mild hint of raw honey in this beer. It left me wondering how it’s taste would change as it was paired with spicy foods. My guess is amazing.
Feel was alright. It has some carbonization rolling in and sits on the tip of your tonge.
Over all I am impressed. This beer explained to me the rave about bells. Honestly I had to question it before this beer. Well done.

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Date: December 21, 2011 Mode: Bottle Source: Shenanigans Description: Translucent golden brown pour with nice amount of head and some lacing. Malty/caramel and fruity aroma with a taste that was malty sweet though not really interesting. Slight carbonation and light to medium bodied. Don’t really care for the style so this one had an uphill battle, but it was decent.

You want something fairly simple, drinkable, yet complex and delicious? Bell’s Amber Ale is a damn good choice, sir.
