Commercial Description:
Cricket Hill American Ale is an easy drinking “amber” ale with a wonderful balance of caramel sweetness and hop flavor. The aroma has a slight note of citrus and rock candy. There is not an imported ale on the market that tastes this fresh.

Medium-big head atop a clear amber body. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit, some mustiness. Taste is moderately sweet, grapefruit, orange peel, some caramel. Medium bitterness. Light-medium body. Decent, thoughthe sweetness is not quite offset by the bitterness.

On tap. Poured a medium amber color. Hoppy and malty aroma and tastes. Couldn’t really pick anything special out of it although I enjoyed the overall taste.

Draft... Harrisburg Beer Festival 2... Clear amber ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. The aroma and flavor are pretty nondescript. Perfectly balanced. Light to medium-bodied and fizzy. Short, crisp, clean finish. A hint of malt, but, in the end, way too thin for the style.

Pleasantly tart citrus-grapefruit hop nose with a sweet, round caramelly malt character. Clear burnished copper coloured body is topped by a decent, fine bubbled white head that recedes to cover with some lace. Caramel malts are thick and sweet with herbal, citrus hop flavours and medium bitterness. Medium light body with fair cabonation. Sampled at Kennett Square Brewfest 2005.
