Wasn’t a fan of this offering. Hard to place why, just couldn’t get past the taste. Very interesting, but, in my case, very hard to drink. Hmm.

12/28/07 notes: decent amber, similar in quality to Opa Opa Red Rock just weaker. Just some malt touches with some balancing hops.

Pours clear light gold with a medium sized head. Aroma is sublte with some caramel malt and a touch of hops. Flavor is pretty much the same. A lackluster beer.

Bottle from Bottle Barn; Nose is fairly faint with some light caramel; copper color with a small offwhite head; flavor has some mild hop bitterness and caramel. Not much of an amber ale!

Sampled from the six-pack I bought at the brewey in Hilo, poured into a pint glass. A very clear beer with low bubbles and a dark amber-red color with a good sized foamy/creamy off-white head. The aroma has caramel malt and some earthy and grainy hops. A bitter and sour taste with a touch of sweetness. Mild carbonation, and a full texture with a rough, bubbly finish; somewhat thin and a touch dry.
