redgold07 (297), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Mar 19, 2008 Pours a medium brown-red color with a slight white head. Aroma is a little hoppy. It seems that there is rye in here somewhere. Flavor is lighter on the hops than expected, but still good.
On tap at Uncle Billy’s.

Unfiltered brown color with okay head and lacing. Nice hoppy smell that would be perfect if it had a bit more kick. Very nice, VERY light hop flavor. A bit thin on the palate but nice overall. lb4lb (1388), Austin, Texas, USA Jan 3, 2008 Had on tap at Uncle Billy’s. Was told this was the same recipe as used at the Bitter End by the bartender, so I’ll put the review under here for now... Poured a very dark crimson color, almost brown with just a small head. Smell was hoppy and zesty and almost rye like. Taste was a balanced hoppiness with again zesty, hearty notes of rye like grain and malt. Very nicely balanced and easy drinking enough for beginners but tasty enough for everyone. Not a traditional Joe Schmoe Amber, and a nicely done beer. DewBrewer (248), Austin, Texas, USA Jul 20, 2005 On draught. Amber/orange color with nice lacing. The aroma has nice citrus with a touch of malt coming through. The flavor is so well balanced with the malt and the hop bitterness, flavor and aroma. This is a bit unique being a hoppy amber here in Texas so it is very welcome each time Brian brews it. Look for it. Humulone_Red (743), Vancouver, Washington, USA Jun 23, 2005 On Cask @ the Bitter End. Nice murky amber color with some head and lacing. Citrus and malt in the nose. Smooth malt flavor with a medium body. Citrus hop bite and the end for balance. Very drinkable beer.
