4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Wow! Smells like freshly mowed grass, yet still good. This is good. A bit malty, but some late hops and a hint of caramel are nice. Could drink this one again.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
12 oz bottle. Pours a nice amber/brown color with a bit of chill haze. The head was a bit underwhelming but had sufficient lacing. Aroma is fairly faint but you do get a bit of caramel and a dash of...spice? The flavor is heavy on the toasted side. It’s a nice change of pace having a toasted amber with a touch of sweetness at the end...rounds it out nicely. The mouthfeel on this beer is rather nice and full. A lot of ambers fall short here but this one has it right. I could drink a bunch of these.

This tasty brew poured a beautiful copper color. Aroma had a nice balance of malts and hops. Flavor was mostly malty but had enough hops to be interesting... another balanced brew... the way I like ’em.

Pours a deep hazy amber with off-white head. Aroma of malt with some fruit notes. Flavor has nice malt tast, subtle sweetness, fruit notes. Mouthfeel is light-medium with high carbonation.....Over all, pretty good stuff.

From the bottle, an explosion of head. Have paper towels within arm’s reach. Pours a hazy copper, underneath a mountain of head. Actually, I think this tastes quite good...up there with another favorite Choc, Basement Batch.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a cloudy red-orange with a modest yellowish head. Initial nose is hops with clear, sweet malt under it. I never know what to expect when I get something called an amber, and, for some reason most of these beers seem to have a nasty coarse bite to the palate. Not this one. This one has a distinct malt flavor with a clear chocolate flavor running through-out. There is a slight metallic taste in the finish, but nothing that I would have noticed if I wasn’t working at it. I like this beer just fine and am wondering why it is getting kicked around so much in the ratings. I’d buy it again.
