12 oz bottle, courtesy Degarth. Thanks, bro. Pours ruddy brown/red with an off white, short lasting head. Aroma is herbal tea. That’s the only way to really describe it. Some maltiness as well in the aroma. But it mainly smells like a tea beer, if there were such a thing. Flavor on the tongue is malt, herbal flavors and again tea. Finishes clean, slightly bitter, medium lasting.

Oct 8, 2008 Light floral aroma with hints of carmel and burned sugars. Light ruby brown with toasted tan head. Suprisingly good flavor. Carmel, light coffee, hints of toffee with just a touch of herbal spice. Nice mouth feel. Overall drinkable, would pair well with foods.

does not count  Oct 5, 2008 This bottle poured the expected orange-amber color with a sweet, pleasant aroma, but very little head. Straight from the fridge, I found the first sip a little bland and even harsh, but after letting it sit for fifteen minutes, I was pleased with the sweet, malty taste. Drank smooth and finished clean. In all, a solid, satisfying amber.

Sep 30, 2008 Aroma is malty and inviting, with just a touch of sweetness and a hint of fresh bread. Color is clear, orangy-brown-amber; head is fairly thick and persistent, and a nice pale tan. Flavor is crisp and smooth, malty and satisfying, only a teensy bit bitter - not complex, but rather tasty. Texture is smooth and lively.

Sep 20, 2008 Malt aroma with black and chocolate malts? Pours brown. Tastes mainly nutty. A decent amber.

Sep 18, 2008 Flat, watery, sour weak hops, faint raisins, blah. I’ve had worse. Nice pour, decent aroma, there are many better ambers out there.
