Pours with a look of a lite iced tea... well, except for the thick tan head! I noticed that this beer is nicely carbonated, and has floating sediment. First wiff of this stuff tells you that it is sweet. Extremely drinkable, especially for the style. Alchohol, though not strong, is present. I definitely would say that the Amber Ale is a spicy beer. The aftertaste is pleasant, and equals the delight of actually drinking the beer. I love it!

Aroma is cerealy goldfish cracker; Appearance is amber orange with the allusion of the milkyway with the floaters... really a pleasurable look; Taste is smooth and medium light with a thin soft finish... overall, a very drinkable beer in a bar bottle and great blue heron label... I would buy it again.

I really enjoy the Amber Ale from Bell’s. It is extremely refreshing and a great dinner beer as well. I enjoyed this with a seafood dish which was a great pairing for my palate.

It is slightly sweet, with some hints of malts. It has a nice complex taste, with it’s sweetness and balance of malts and grains. It pours a dark gold and is very hazy.

Fairly clear golden brown color, big head that dissolves away with a few swigs. Pleasant Sweet Aroma - not strong. Starts out tasting good, hoppy nutty, leaves a slight bitter tastte in your mouth but goes away quick. It tastes like its fairly strong alcohol wise.

I actually liked this better than the "trendy" choice of many, Bells Oberon. Just the right amount of maltiness, spicy hops that don’t let you down, even tasted good only slightly chilled.,

This beer is a glowing, if not perfect, version of its style. A masterful american brewery amongst a slew of shit american microbrews. Prost Bells.

Pretty nice beer. Very clean. Amber pour with a light, whispy white head. Lots of sediment here. Aroma is mostly a nutty, caramelly sweetness. Taste is more of the same, with just a hint of hop bitterness and a nice subtle fruitiness. Medium, creamy body, just enough sweetness and a clean finish. Delicious and very drinkable.

Pours a hazy amber with medium head. Floral aroma with thin, smooth texture. Bitter up front with medium malt profile and a piney hop finish. Easy to drink.

Appearance is a hazy orange-ish copper color with minimal head. Aroma is fruity, mostly orange, with malt scents as well. Taste follows the nose, a nice balance of citrus, light hops, caramel, and malt.
