Commercial Description:
An Alt, German style brown ale, the medium bodied amber/red beer has nutty/spicy hints that pair well with robust steaks and spicy foods. This is a beer that uses ale yeast but is cold aged like a lager. This process gives Amberjack a clean, fresh finish.

Bottle. Not sure if they are brewing this again or they found some in a warehouse somewhere. Copper color with a thin dissipating off white head. Mild dark caramel and touch of herbal hops aromas. Fairly clean dry toasted malt flavors. Hints of spice late in the quaff. Seemed better a few years ago, but maybe the memories were just better.

12oz bottle-pours a light tan rocky head with gold color. Aroma is roasty malt, hops. Taste follows, good carbonation.

This brew poured a small head of finely sized light brown colored mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a fair lace. The body was transparent softly carbonated and amber brown in color. The aroma was malty with some caramel notes to it. The mouth feel was mildly tingly and bitter with a mild hop bite. The flavor was that of caramel malts with some red ale flavoring to it.

Bottle. This beer formed a small sized ivory head with fine-small sized bubbles that quickly dissipated. The nose was hoppy and the flavor of this beer was bitter and hoppy with a slight aftertaste. The mouthfeel was tingly and fairly smooth. The lacing was sparse.

Surprisingly impressed. Light copper color, tight white head, just a little bit of lacing. Cool bottle - can't go wrong with a fish - especially an amberjack -one of my favorites. Aroma is a bit off - reminds me of overripe vegetables. Flavor has elements of caramel with an enticing fruity, citrusy back end. Mouthfeel is velveety smooth. Strong finish. Found at the local pub - would buy a six pack for sure if sold locally.
