Barreras (608) - Diamond Bar, California, USA - DEC 21, 2012
Pours an amber color with a copper hue. Aroma is mildly floral with a slight sweetness to it. Taste is bitter but dissipates quickly. Tastes more like a weak IPA than an amber.

ttoadee (357) - Austin, Texas, USA - DEC 8, 2012
Soft amber, creamy off white head. Nose is roasted malt and muted hops. Slightly bitter on the tongue. Bitterness grows through the middle (they like their hops earlier in the boil). Finish is bitter and pleasant.

Non l’ho trovata nulla di eccezzionale, aromatica si e anche saporita, strana, non mi ha convinto.

Jabic (296) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - NOV 18, 2012
Ar: Toasted caramel, a bit of butterscotch, and some pineapple. Ap: Amber with a slight haze - small white head with moderate retention, some sticky lacing and foam left behind. T: Caramel and a touch of butterscotch up front - some floral notes and hints of orange marmalade - red apple - medium bitterness with a warm bread notes on the finish. P: Medium body with medium-high carbonation - finish is medium-dry. O: Solid amber ale - nice malt backbone, well-rounded, and some bright and tasty hop notes.

Tastes just like a strong English Ale. Body is malt and bitterness with warmth from hops rather than crisp aromatics. Alcohol is subdued and finish is long. Would be an excellent beer to start the evening with.

Easy drinking amber ale, rusty colored and refreshingly smooth mouthfeel. Nonetheless, it’s forgettable. Like the 9th guy in a batting order, this one filled out the remainder of my 6 glass sampler order. I’d like to try this one out of the bottle, since it’s a bit of a delicate flower that needs undivided attention.

Koskela (129) - Marysville, California, USA - OCT 29, 2012
Nice hoppy aroma slight malty smell. A hazy deep amber color with a small off white head. A grratnhop flavor. Not too bitter and a slight malty flavor with earthy notes. Itsa light/medium bodied brew with good carb. Overall its a fantastic brew great flavor id buy this over and over. For an amber its a bit to bitter and not as sweet as what id expect.

Tmoney99 (8782) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - OCT 15, 2012
Bottle. Poured clear amber color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate balanced hop and malt aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Good soft brew.

Cloudy dark amber pour with a nice head on it. Smells like beer. A bit of malt, a bit of bitterness in the flavor, though neither last long. Its not bad, but nothing special.
