heemer77 (3611), Savannah, Missouri, USA May 7, 2008 Thanks for sharing a bottle, iowaherkeye. The body was hazy dark orange amber. The aroma was bready with some sweat adn pears. The taste was weird bread crust with some walnuts. Are their any hops in this thing?
argo0 (6024), Washington DC, USA Jul 16, 2008 (12oz bottle, thanks kmweaver) Small off-white head atop crystal clear amber body. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, some earthy, light brown. Taste is medium sweet, lemon, some grassy, light grain. Light-medium body. ryan (1673), Beltsville, Maryland, USA Jul 9, 2008 Courtesy of kmweaver. Light amber body with a small beige head. The flavor is doughy, cracker and citrus hops. The flavor is lightly sweet, lightly bitter with citrus, floral hops, light cotton candy and honey, pale malts. Medium body is round with moderate carbonation. Solid. acrdz (4148), Pennsylvania, USA Jul 3, 2008 Hazy, murky, muddy glowing orange color with a small white head. Nose of semi-musty crystal malt, some cracked grains, some wet bread, a bit of orange-scented fruity hops as well. Full, chewy body, nicely done, some orange and caramel malt flavors, a bit of banana as well, even some lemon and apple flavored hops when warmer. Overall very fresh and easy to like. kmweaver (1813), Takoma Park, Maryland, USA Jul 3, 2008 12oz bottle, courtesy of a couple trades. Thanks, guys! Pours a bright, candy-orange color; off-white head with patchy fine-bubbled lacing. Oranges, candy sugar, and some earthy bitterness in the aroma; pleasantly hopped, chewy nose. Medium mouthfeel: chewy candy sugar, oranges, and dried fruit; coupled to a solid earthy bitterness; pretty tasty stuff, and (from what I recall) quite a bit better than the regular Bell’s Amber; sessionable stuff. Medium finish: toasty grains, earthy bitterness, some husks; pretty dry ending. naivepegasus (139), USA Jun 28, 2008 Pours a hazy orange with a finger of white head. Odor of caramel and sweet malts. Frothy mouthfeel, taste starts with some caramel and ends with a hoppy bitterness. Very good.
