COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Aspen is amber in color with a flower/citrus aroma with undertones of caramel. Aspen has a moderate to high hop bitterness with well-balanced supporting sweet caramel flavor and a lingering hop bitterness in the finish.

A nice well balanced amber ale, that is not overly heavy on the toasted malts. A solid malt character and some refreshing cascadian hops. Very nice caramel and toffee flavor.

Wow Im still finding notes from the Atlanta Pub Crawl! A reddish orange appearance with a moderate head. Aroma was floral with a citrus tone. A slightly bitter flavor with a huge malt background. This was quite the hoppy amber ale. Enjoyable brew and one that would be a good session ale.

Nice hoppy surprise. Clean, crisp citrusy aroma. This is an amber just dying to be an IPA but prevents itself by its balance of malt flavor. Very drinkable session type brew. Nice bubbly amber appearance - crips hoppy flavor lasts to the end. Buckhead continues to improve.
