Oct 13, 2009 Bottle from TBS, thanks matt... Redish amber color, duh... No head? Malty aroma. Taste is the same, just a plain malty beer, some touch of earthy notes. Ambers are BORING.... I wanted to like this beer but in the long run its just like every other amber in the world.... Didnt even finish my glass....

Oct 4, 2009 Bottle. Pours an amber body with an off white head. Malty beer with nutty chewy toasted malt, caramel and a late bitterness. Earth and a shallow fruit tone. Decent, not worth the price tag however.

Sep 18, 2009 no maltyness or sweetness for me at all. very dry across the tongue. heavy hops make it crisp. probably could be classified as an IPA. no astringency or acidity on the finish.
doesn’t have a lot to say.
lingering aftertaste.

Sep 17, 2009 Bottle @ Malthouse. Pours a beautiful red/amber, thin dissipating off white head.
Super biscuity aroma, some raisiny fruit. Flavour is super biscuity too, subtle raisin. Dry bitter hop cuts the malt slightly, but the flaout remains like a drinkable malt biscuit.
Would be highly sessionable if it was cheaper.

Sep 13, 2009 Cask, Griffin, Carlisle. Quite malty and mellow, but with a tangy hop character in the background. Amber appearance, zesty palate, slightly acrid aftertaste, towards the end.

Sep 11, 2009 Bottle. Pours lightish copper with a very little off-white head that’s barely there but does leave a bit of lacing. Nose mainly consists of malt and spicy yeast with a bit of caramel and whisky in the background. Flavour is also quite malty and hoppy with hints of caramel and spice but considering the aroma, the flavour is quite restrained, even a little thin. All in all quite a nice beer, very sessionable.

Aug 29, 2009 Bottled (from Utobeer, batch 015, BB 06/2010).
Deep amber, a bit hazy color, small white head. Nose has some caramel malt and fruity hoppyness, also hints of metal. Pale malty, biscuity flavor with caramel and some citrus-fruity hops in the finish. Some late bitterness. Clean, but boring as the most amber ales are.
