Commercial Description:
This beer is a nice hoppy amber ale with a dark honey color. The aroma includes nuts and honey, with a pear sweetness. Then you get some toast and honey, followed by steadily increasing hop flavors.

On tap at the brewery in Kingston, WA--Poured a deep amber body with a mild off-white head. Nose of creamy caramel and piquant hops. Very easy drinking with a nice carbonation level. Finished a little watery.

purchased at central market in poulsbo, washington. pour is a dark amber with a thin light beige head that quickly leaves, some lacing. smell is of sweet fruit, some nuts, malt, caramel. taste is watery, caramel, sweet pineapple, fruity, malt, ends with a slight bite. overall its an okay amber, not great but good, better than the 2.72 that it is rated at this time.

22oz Bomber from 99 Bottle Federal Way, WA. A dark amber color with a nice head. This was a light in aroma with a tad hint of fruitness and some smokiness. This was a amber that was light in flavor but some life. This was a easy to drink amber ale with some good uses of hops. Those where present in the nose and flavor.

Aroma of fruit and earth. Cloudy amber appearance, obviously unfiltered. Flavor is caramel and fruit. My buddies said Apricot? Which is probably a result of the up fron maltiness with the tartness from the hops. Pretty carbonated and lively on the palate. I would drink it again.

Had a fresh bottle of this a few weeks back. Much better drink this time around - Rich caramel malt base, somewhat spicy with hints of nuts and other earthy bits.
