COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This full bodied amber ale is modeled after the "altbiers" of Dusseldorf, Germany. Our top fermenting yeast and cold finishing temperature result in a complex, yet clean, full flavor.

This poured an amber color with and off white head. Aroma was lightly toasted malts, some caramel and some grassy hops too. Flavor was a bit strange, some rtoasted malt flavor, some metalic taste, light hops and a strange bitternees.

Slightly malty with a crisp grain finish and clean aftertaste. Nothing special, just a run of the mill pale ale.

bottle, compared to the ipa by long trail this is pretty disapointing. watery, no complexity, less bitter. not undrinkable though.

I suppose I expect too much from the beers I drink now, but this is still decent. Not too much flavor, maybe overcarbonated, but its actually nice once in awhile not to have a beer thats overbearing in flavor or abv. I realize how I sound, making excuses, but I do like this one as a session beer.

Bottle. Poured a clear light amber with white foam head. Slight hops and grain malts gives this a sweetness. Pretty clear and calm with the finish as such.

I was not too blown away by this beer. Pours a lighter brown color with a medium white head. Taste is some maltiness to give it a little heft, but mostly hops on the taste. Tastes like an average pale ale really, nothing strong enough to distinguish it from the pack, but not bad either.

Poured from a 12oz bottle. It had a copper color with little to no carbonation. The head was really thin. It had a smell of yeast and malt and a slight bread aroma. The taste was crisp with a quick finish. I thought this beer had no bite or body to it. But not a bad beer to have more then a few.

Body is a rusty amber with a light white head. Aroma has strong floral notes with a grassy character. Body is a little light and has a slightly grassy flavor with some notes of pine. A little watery. Flavor fades out rather quickly. Refreshing, but flavors leave a bit to be desired after such a nice aroma.
