Commercial Description:
It was created in 1933 by Alfred Dubuisson, grand-father of the present family brewer, Hugues. Its former name was "Bush 12%", but today it is known as Bush Amber. Its amber colour is due to the use of caramel malt in the production process. Its bitter sweet taste provides it with firmness and personality. What's more, it helps digestion.

Pours a dark brown with a strong reddish hue. Strong fruit aroma with citrus and sweet notes also. Sweet overall taste. Can barely taste the alcohol considering this is 12% by volume. Expected this to taste much stronger. Finishes with a bitter but dry sweetness. Great beer, overall. Definitely worth trying. Hard to believe it’s ranked at only 82%.

250 ml, no notches on bbe. Orange-copper with a two-finger head that settles to a nice frosting. Mostly clear except for some floaties. Brown sugar, caramel, raisin and apple aromas. Flavor is toffee, apple, cinnamon, alcohol and slight wood. Medium body is smooth. Finishes dry with some alcohol-tingle and chest warming. A tad too noticeable on the alcohol for me.

Botella. Pours a beautiful clear deep red-brown golden colour with a short lasting off-white head. Sweet malty, alco fruity aroma. Very good mouthfeel. The flavour is sweet with a pleasant deep maltiness, alcohol, some dark fruits, caramel and some spice. Tasty!

Orange amber color with a thin off white head. Sweet aroma with an alcohol note. Medium thick body, smooth and syrupy. Tastes of honey liqueur, butter, and caramel. Sweet and strong but I actually think its strength is hidden pretty well, I’ve had a lot worse. It is fairly simple though: sweet and alcohol.

Pours a clear cupper colour with a thin white head. Prominent taste of alcohol, with spicy caramel, honey and orange flavours. Nice finish. A good beer, but not great.
