KingofCastle (191), London, Ontario, Canada Sep 29, 2006 bottle: This amber ale tilts towards the dark malt side of things. Very smooth - the hops won’t overwhelm here. Dark copper, thin head. Sweet ale with dark fruit or sugar notes. Not a bitter beer by any stretch. OK for the drinkers frightened by true ales but why would a real ale drinker choose this? Good beer but don’t see the point of this stylle as not many levels of taste here.
hobbersr (61), Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada Oct 26, 2008 Pours out of the bottle a reddish-copper colour with a very small off white head. Smells of caramel, apples and spice. Tastes of caramel, apples, a touch of spice, and that’s about it. Watery feel, pleasant but nothing great. AWS9 (145), Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Oct 24, 2008 Bottle. Some Malt, caramel. Maybe a little thin. Unremarkable amber ale, but nothing offensive by any means, so pretty good. mbgrayson (66), Anaconda, Montana, USA Oct 22, 2008 A basic amber type ale. Moderately drinkable. Not one that I would go out of my way for. ILduce (115), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 7, 2008 Bottle: Amber. Aromas of sweet malt. Fruity with a toasty likeness...a hint of grapefruit and raisin. Watery; just a trifle dry. Unimaginative . Aubrey (2643), Denver, Colorado, USA Aug 29, 2008 Draft in Waterton Lakes: Deep copper-amber hue with a decent head. Lively carbonation; smooth, easy-to-drink palate. Lightly roasted and toasted and grainy. Light bitterness and hint of sourness. Faint sweetness (toffee). Herbal bitterness. Like a Fat Tire Lite.
