Commercial Description:
A malty, copper-hued treat from start to finish, Ridgeline begins with a distinctive, estery aroma. Followed with a complex, nutty malt flavor true to its Scottish-style heritage, Ridgeline delivers unparalleled character and dimension. A touch of hops rounds out its silky, full body, highlighting Ridgeline’s subtle but engrossing character.

When I opened this beer, it decided to foam ALL over. I am really surprised because it was sitting in my fridge for days. It also didn’t taste infected. Anyway, minus 1 O because of that. It has 6+ inches of head and I can’t even pour more of the bottle in. Amber body with tons of rapid bubbling. EXCELLENT lacing. The aroma is flowery and has some exotic fruitiness to it. The flavor is smooth and malty. The finish hits with tons of nuts and roasted malts (chocolate). Very odd how you only get that in the finish. The palate is fizzy and a touch bitter. Medium-full body. A couple changes and this could be really good.

Bottled. Amber coloured with a small white head. Malty aroma with lots of caramel with notes of roasted malts. Flavour of caramel, malts and grass. Slightly hoppy finish.

Flowery and fruity aroma, citrusy and orange. Pours orange to amber, medium off-white head. Some malt in the flavor, with some fizzy hoppyness on the tongue. Not much flavor.

(Arapahoe Amber). Very large frothy light tan head. Orangish amber body. Flowery orange aroma. Fizzy carbonation burn on tongue. Not a whole lot to say... malty fizziness on tongue with some bland hops to touch up the sweetness. Glad I only have one.

Bottle. Amber colour with a medium off-white head. Hoppy light sweet butter aroma and a light fruity dry hoppy taste. Medium body and a dry finish.
