Bomber from kenb; nose of grassy hops and light caramel; copper with a medium beige, glass-lacing head; flavor has some grainy rye taste, some light hop bitterness, and caramel, with a tiny buttery note deep in the background. Pretty good amber.

aroma of fresh barley- - red in color with a thin white head good lacing- caramel notes without being sweet- lingerling hops that dry out the palate- almost a slight spicyfinish- good beer that presents a different taste with each sip- nice presentation- would drink again

22 oz. bottle from Plaza Liquors - Pours a fairly clear deep amber color with a 3/4 finger thick off white head. Light lacing. Aroma is a nutty, toasted caramel malt. Flavor is much of the same. No lingering aftertaste. Medium body. One of the better Amber ales I’ve had.

22oz. bomber. Reddish-brown color with just a bit of fog in it. Great tight-foam head leaves lace all the way down. Nose is loaded with grass and tea scent, and a faint cola tinge rides along. Flavor is bright and clean, with more grass, citrus and pine nuts. Not as sweet as most ambers, which is a plus in my book. Easily drinkable and sessionable.

12oz bottle: pours amber brown with minimal head, almost no aroma with hints of hops, flavor is pretty hoppy for an amber with a malty caramel backbone. pretty good beer for an amber but really not my style.

Appearance: Pours a hazy, reddish-amber body with a small, bubbly white head. Smell: Mild toasted toffee aroma with some herbal hop scents with a slice or two of lemon. Taste: Toffee-tasting maltiness with a mild sweetness. Herbal, grassy hop flavor with a cup of fresh-brewed green tea. Medium bitterness. Light acidity. Finishes dry with a light, lingering bitterness. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Sadly, it’s kinda watery. Drinkability: A decent, mild organic amber.
