Tessic (372), Brantford, Ontario, Canada May 8, 2008 This ale poured a nice rich copper colour with a quick lived white rocky head. To the nose there is scents of malt, bread, hopps (slightly piney) and a little citrus. First taste was smooth with a good bout of hoppy bitterness and a little caramel. Palate is nothing but bitter hopps, but not overbearing.
gsmitty80 (514), Washington DC, USA Aug 27, 2008 I thought this was a good altbier. Poured copper, as you would imagine with good head and nice lacing as it was drank. Taste was bold, flavorful and slightly bitter. Finish was indiscernible. pforei (335), USA Aug 7, 2008 Thin and refreshing. Typical teutonic toasty caramel malt. Smidge of earhty hops. Slightly dry finish with surprisingly somewhat bitter aftertaste.
joebudzjoe (102), Connecticut, USA Jul 13, 2008 To the Otter Creek tradition, their Copper Ale isn’t too fancy, just decent, solid beer. Aromas and tastes of sweet malts with dry hop. Underhook (96), Lincoln Park, New Jersey, USA Jul 5, 2008 Given to me by my uncle during a July 4 party. Deep red hue. Smells pleasantly malty. Nothing crazy, but a well balanced, enjoyable taste. Quality brew here. Haslinger (518), Syracuse, New York, USA Jun 30, 2008 Bottle from the Otter Creek mix pack. Pours a beautiful coppery reddish. Awesome. The beer is very malt and ends pretty bitter but the malt meshes it together well. I liked this one a lot and would buy again.
