Commercial Description:
The color of a Colorado sunset, this complex, garnet colored ale blends the nutty flavor of roasted barley with three varieties of hops to impart a rich malt flavor and hoppy finish. Medium-to-full bodied with dry, almost smokey characteristics, Sundance Amber is a very sophisticated brew.

A reddish copper ale with a thin off white head. Again, a rather sweetish aroma, nut and cinnamon with some boiled veggies, no hops, a bit cloying overall. At Boulder Beer Tap House, DEN, August 28 2009.

The label reads "Necktar of the Vampires" and I am suspicious that this is simply relabeled sundance amber but whatever. This pours out a nice amber color with a perfect off-white head. Smell is malty as is the taste. Not much going on here but very drinkable and has a nice aftertaste of malt. I like the fact that they are supporting local arts.

Overall Impression: From an older rating, I have this beer down as being a solid and enjoyable Amber ale, but not overly exiting or memorable...

Medium hop aroma. Slightly darker than pale yellow, a little brownish orange in there. Mild dull hop taste and palate, very similar to bould pass time but with a little more bitterness. Better than nothing carbonation. Could possibly said to have a leather feel to it. Seems to be a much higher abv than the 4.8 listed here, I’d say more like 5.5% or more. Almost has enough personality to be called an IPA. Hoppily complex all right. Finish is not quite bitter medicine.

Bottle This poured a clear amber with a nose of caramel malts and citrus hops. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor was malts and hops and in good balance. A simple amber that was enjoyable to drink. Thanks for the trade JB.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a thin white head.Aroma is malty and grassy with caramel and some faint hops. Flavor was light caramel malts, roasted grain and a bit of toffee with a slightly bitter finish.

Not much on the aroma front. Pours a nice clean amber. Flavor is pretty sweet, caramel and toast. Palate is just a slight lingering of hops but clean otherwise. Overall not bad.
