Gypsy19 (728) - California, USA - DEC 11, 2008
A malty brew with caramel notes yet sweetness withheld. Kind of flat on the carbonation. This tastes a little stronger than the purported 5.4% at the brewery and in a beneficial way. Just decent overall.

Oscbert (746) - Sacramento, California, USA - DEC 5, 2008
~Pours a dark reddish brown color with thin white head. ~Nice biscuit malt scent, normally dont care for this scent in beers, but this one is nice. ~Biscuit malt taste, light hops, nice balance. ~Medium feel, good finish. ~This is a good amber. I really like the ambers from this brewery.

ChainGangGuy (3685) - Canton, Georgia, USA - JUN 15, 2008
Appearance: Pours a clearish, dark reddish body with a thin, wispy, off-white head. Smell: Weak nose smelling of hints of fruit, caramel malt, and a pinch of grains. Taste: Slight caramel malts though very little sweetness. Faintest hint of grain. No more than a touch of bitterness. Dry, yawn-inducing finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. A bit watery, I must say. Drinkability: Rather uninteresting and an average amber, at best.
