COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Made from mostly pale malt and some Munich and caramel malts. These add a little sweetness, which is balanced by more hops. The result is a rich color and fruity flavor.

From a bottle poured an amber color with a small amount of head. Malty flavor with a lingering finish.

Murky orange amber pour wtih fair tan head. Caramel and apple nose, but not caramelapple. Flavor is a little sweet caramel but well balanced out with a lightly fruity hop character. Carbonation is a bit on the moderately high side to the point that there lies a little bit of a carbonic bite. Meh.

Pretty much the definitiion for an Amber Ale. Poured at about the right temperature for a small to medium, light tan head that soon settled out. Color is a clear honey amber with some bubble trails. Aroma is malt, beer, and a little roast, hop, and fruit. Flavor is similar to nose with just a little sweetness to balance the carbonic tang and slight roast and hop. Body is superb, with excellent carbonation. Finish is like flavor and slowly fades with no off notes. Super easy drinking beer.

Flavor is caramel malt sweetness... Not much hops character, okay beer, definitely not a big fan of the style in general....

Bottle from leesburg Wegman’s. Pours light brown with a thin white khaki head. Not much on the nose. Fair amount of carbonation. There’s a hint of sweetness on the tongue from the malt with a subtle amount of hoppiness on the finish. This one’s sure to be a favorite with the punters.
