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.

A hazy amber beer with a huge disappearing orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of yeast and oranges. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of oranges leading to a dry bitter end. An OK beer.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Comes as "Great Divide Ridge Line Amber". Very, very pretty deep copper-coloured with a small, dense head. Very aromatic, hoppy nose but only a moderate hoppiness throughout the beer. Lovely nutty aroma with a full, chewy body. A nice beer, sip by sip... 280505

[Bottled at Old Eskil Ölkultur, Eskilstuna] Brownish amber, small creamy head. Toffeeish nose. Sweetish and caramelly with clean, rounded mouthfeel and notes of milk chocolate. Low bitterness. A pretty solid little beer, well worth drinking on its own.

Slightly hazy orange-amber colour. Earthy, slightly caramelly, crackerlike aroma. Earthy, slightly toasty, slightly caramelly flavour. Medium body. Good balance. A straightforward amber - and thus devoid of any particular attractions - but decently made.

Beautiful copper color; huge head. Aroma of malt and some hop. In the flavor, some malt (dry), caramel (soft) and correct bitterness. Average.
