Fischer Amber

Bottle. Poured an amber brown with small head. Taste was a bitter, little bit of carmel malt in the background, Not complex. Not a whole lot going on. Carmel, malt, and hops, possibly a little vanilla. Very drinkable but not anywhere near a wow. Mouthfeel was a bit thin and watery. Boring. Not a great beer but I find it a wee bit underrated on this site. I would drink again. I only paid $1 for a .6 liter bottle!

I inherited 3 vineyards in France, and I can tell you that The French should just stick to making wine. Their Beer is merde. This stems from the fact that they look down upon Beer..and generally don’t really give a damn about it..but I sure do.

Initial aroma is some aluminum, some adjunct, a little sweet malt, and cinnamon. This beer is more of a dark gold than amber. The flavor is, surprise, more metallic grainy adjunct sweetness. A slight crisp hop ending. A little alcohol can be detected. I guess there is something in here that reminds me of Bud Light, but it is definitley nowhere near as bad. In fact, for all of the metallic adjunctiness, I actually think it is pretty tasty. It is also quite a bit better as it warms, as more spiciness begins to surface and the adjunctiness takes a back seat. It also coats the palate, but it is a lighter medium bodied amber ale. Also very carbonated and obviously pasteurized. I can only imagine that this beer probably tastes a hundred times better in France, where it is fresh.

I really liked this Fischer beer. It pours a yellowish amber and has notes of nice hops and light spice. It has a good finish and a reasonable palate.

An enticing, shadowy dark gold appearance that surprises with a gulp of honey. After the initial surprise the brew mellows out. I’m not one to indulge in such sweetness or a brew with little bite.So one was enough for me.

Sweet at first, but starts to get bitter around mid-bottle. By the bottom of the pint, it was very plain. I’d buy again, but it wasn’t spectacular.

(500ml bottle) Purchased at Spinnakers Spirit Merchants. Pours a thin, lasting white head with a clear, highly carbonated golden body. Nose if overly corn and wet grains. Flavour is tonic water mixed with mashed potatoes. Very poor.

I have had this beer on several occassions in 2006. I found it to be an excellent beer with great flavor, refreshing and nice aftertaste. However I did notice an inconsistency in the quality and flavor of the beer in several most recently in 2007. This may explain the lackluster reviews it is receiving at least as far as flavor.
