Had this beer in 12/5/2001. Aroma is a fresh hoppy scent. Color is a nice golden brown with good carbonation and a nice head. Taste is hoppy, mild and smooth. Starting with a easy medium body it goes down smooth with a nice hop flavor coming out. Finish is mild with a creamy malt flavor with fresh hops and a slight bitterness. Overall I feel it is a good drinking beer but just not fresh and crisp enough for a Spring brew.

From a 12 oz. stubby brown bottle with a blurb about the ale on the back label and no freshness date. Made a good appearance, poured a semi-hazy amberish copper with a foamy off-white goldenish head that reduced to a thin, bubbly lacing. Had a caramel malty aroma with whiffs of citrus/fruity hops and a bready yeastiness. Good carbonation and a slick light to medium bodied mouth feel, good drinkability. Had a big citrus fruity hop taste, a mellow bitterness, with a underlining sweet bready maltiness and a crisp soft sour finish. A decent Amber Ale from Grant’s, not their best hop-upped ale, but very drinkable.

Bottle: Aroma is bready with moderate cookie maltiness and a touch of flowery hops. Pours a transparent amber with a yellowish off-white head that diminishes quickly. Toffee flavors up front are instantly dominated by a sour and nutty hop finish Not what I was expecting in an APA.

got this in a trade and cannot remember who sent it. thanks any way. from the bottle , poured a copper ambe with off white head. aroma malts and hops, caramel, hints of grapefruit. flavor, malts, caramel, some toffee, floral hops, a little on the watery side but not to bad.

Not really sure what this one’s trying to be, but it does not possess the qualities of an amber ale; not that that is a bad thing. Pours an almost brown color with a decent heda. Smells citrussy with some grapefruit undertones. Finishes floral with some wildflower like qualities and some tastes I cannot quite place.
