cigarsnbeer (146), Valley City, North Dakota, USA Mar 15, 2007 One of my favorite ambers, from one of my favorites brewers. Malty and hoppy(well it is Rogue, that goes with out saying) pours a beautiful red with a tan head...mmmmmmm, good! gotta pick up a couple more bottles of these!
Chrism86 (78), Melbourne, Australia Sep 5, 2008 Pours ruby/amber with nice tan had. Nose shows burnt caramel and detections of astringent hop presence. Palate is as expected, finishes with high hop bitterness, however is supported reasonably well by malt. Good, but uninspiring. timfoolery (344), California, USA Sep 5, 2008 Ambers don’t have much to them, but Rogue brings a hoppy frontal to this brew. A great palate makes this one worth drinking, but there’s not a ton of flavor. StFun (298), Indiana, USA Sep 4, 2008 Not really much to this one I’m afraid. Pours a nice looking amber, but falls short in every other way. Some notes of malt and hops, but the flavor is just mostly flat and boring. Very plain. kpresley77 (71), Jackson, Georgia, USA Sep 4, 2008 Bottle pours beautiful amber color with very thin tan head. Aroma is citrus and pine. First taste is hops bitterness, some sweetness but hops is the main flavors in this beer throughout. The finish is bitter hops. cbeers21 (384), Miami, Florida, USA Sep 3, 2008 Hearty red/brown pour with solid head. Malty sugary goodness with quiet hops in the back which slowly assert themselves with grapefruit, pineapple and pine notes. Caramel and vanilla touches are in there for balance, light scothcy, earthy, peaty and fruity with a dusty hop predominance.
