Draught @ Brouwer’s Café:   Amber with a slight copper hue, moderate frothy white head, spotty lacing.   Malty nose, slightly mealy, otherwise a bunch of biscuity malts.   Almost a slight hint of cocoa in there, especially on the tongue.   This is a rich Amber Ale.   Low hop, well at least not as pronounced as the malts.   Body and mouthfeel are full to moderate.   Clean finish, malty, and fairly biscuity.   Seems to be more of an Amber than most in that its not overly hopped, and in fact the hops take a back seat to the malts.   Enjoyable, and slightly different with the slight cocoa in there.

On tap at Slabtown in Portland. Pours a reddy brown color without much head. Slight moldy flavor, and not a lot of anything else.

Pours an reddish amber color with a thick off white and great lacing. Smells of pine, grapefruit, caramel, and sweet malt. Tastes of the same things in the smell with a good hop presence for a red ale. Mouthfeel is heavy and surupy with pretty good carbonatiom. This is a pretty good introduction to Boneyard beer although I hear their Ipa’s are amazing. It’s a solid red ale for sure.

On draught at Mama Mia’s. Deep dark red color. Nice malty fruit flavor with minimal hop bitterness.

Tap @ Parkway. Hazy, light amber pour with a short, off-white head leaving moderate lace. Nose is lightly malty with some pine hops. Medium-light body with moderate carbonation. Rye toast, pine, almonds and some yeast. Finish is grapefruit and pumpernickel. A solid amber from an up and coming brewery.

Good offering. I liked it. Balanced hops with malt to bring up the other side. It is good in a simple sort of way, not too strong in any one area, works well all around.

been on an amber kick lately and this is one of the better ones i’ve had in a long while.

Draft at uber tavern with Linh, Nhi and bill. Pours a deep amber with white lacing. Aroma is muted malts. Mouthfeel is thin with notes of sweet malts and pretty much nothing else. Eh.

Tap @ Taphouse Grill, Seattle. Deep clear amber with a spotty head. Aroma is mostly caramel malt with a light herbal tea quality. Flavor is rich, smooth caramel malt with faint hop bitterness. Decent beer, a bit one dimensional.

Clear red ale with off white foam. Breadth aroma with low hop character. Body is biscuits, nuts, and caramel. Very smooth and lighter than expected. Finishes clean.
