Bottle. Pours a light brown with a thick white head. Aroma of sweet malt and flowery hops. Flavor is odd: lots of caramel, also roasted malt, wood, fruit (melon?). Quite sweet, but just an odd combination of flavors. Very different from other ambers that I’ve had. Just ok for me.

Oct 10, 2008 From the bottle this pours a deep gold body with a smallish head and spotty lacing. It’s got an aroma of caramel, white bread toast, and apples. A nice bitter, peppery element is added to the flavor along with some earthiness. It would be repeatable if it didn’t cost so much.

Oct 9, 2008 Light amber in color, slight cloudiness to it, small white head that falls fast. Toasty bready malts up front, fruit and toffee in the sweetness. Hops give a earthy note, lightly spicy in the finish. Body is thin and a bit watery. Overall mild flavor, but a good session beer, although for the price it’s a tough buy.

Oct 8, 2008 Bottle from O’Brien’s San Diego. Aroma of sweet malts, strong American hops, vanilla: very complex and well balanced. Hoppy flavor but in a one dimensional way, with some sweet caramelish hints. The aroma was very nice, but it was therefore a big disappointment in the flavor which is not as complex.

Oct 6, 2008 Amber pour with small head. Sweet caramel malt, biscuits, light fruit, hints of citrus, and grain. Nicely done amber with a medium body. The style itself just isnt anthying that stands out.
