Eyedrinkale (3091), Beer Town, New York, USA Sep 22, 2004 Bottle. An interesting beer indeed. I don’t know if these guys are a brewery or are having it contract brewed. Tasted more like an old ale than an amber, which makes me think this may be a bit old. Not that it’s a bad thing, as I really like old ales. Slightly oxidized and pretty malty stuff. The aroma had some malt and esters. Not bad at all. UnionMade (621), Connecticut, USA Apr 26, 2003 You know, this may be the best amber ale I've ever had. In fact, it's very much an ESB. Pours a deep amber color with just a light misting of head. Aroma is very malty and estery. Fruity, with a bit of floral hoppiness. Flavor is rich and malty, with a pear/apple fruiiness complimenting the mild hoppy bitterness. The finish is long, and leaves you wanting another sip, and another. The beer is medium to full bodied, and way beyond my expectations. I loved this stuff!
