Poured into a white plastic hotel cup (so no appearance rating). Aroma of lightly roasted malts and faint cheddar. The taste is reminiscent of a cracker with a dose of blunt hops. Medium body. Slightly bitter and medium lived aftertaste. Enjoyable, but breaks no molds.

does not count  Jul 14, 2008 looks like an amber should. Good smell, like flower petals and barley smashed up in a copper pestal. Below average flavor and a bit flimsy on on the tongue.

On tap in Newport back in May. Pours an orange - amber color with little to no head. Malt and bread in the nose. Light bodied with notes of roasted malt and bread flavors. A very simple beer, nothing impressive about this one.

Jun 23, 2008 12oz bottle. Medium light amber colored beer. Off burnt butterscotch flavors. Hoppy crispness saves it from amber malt hell. Not really a good beer, but preferable to macro-swill I suppose. Certainly not recommendable.

May 22, 2008 12oz bottle I got for free at a retirement party my friend Jan took me too. After taking a red eye I had this and stopped for a bit. Pours amber with a tan 1 finger head. Nose is light malty and freshly balanced. Taste is malty balanced nice and bitter on the back end overall I thought this was a pretty tasty Amber Ale.

May 16, 2008 Draught. Pours a dark amber color with a small head. Nose is mild but displays toasted malts, caramel and earthy tones. Initial taste is bready with small amounts of caramel sweetness topped with some spices. Mid palate displays a mild citrus. Finishing with average duration and balancing hop bitterness. There is nothing special about this amber ale.
