Commercial Description:
A well balanced, full flavored, amber ale. It has a rich, malty body with a pleasant caramel character derived from a specialty Caravienne malt. A complex hop aroma, with a hint of floral and citrus comes from a combination of Cascades and Liberty hops. It has a rich, creamy head with a fine lace. The light fruitiness, characteristic of ales, is derived from a proprietary yeast strain. Saint Arnold Amber Ale is best consumed at 50 - 55° Fahrenheit.

Thanks to the Wife for bringing this back from a trip to Houston. Good looking amber ale. It’s, well, amber with a butterscotch tinged head. Fruity aroma with an interesting interaction of citrusy hops. Taste is very malty with some hop balance. Caramel, biscuit, ripe golden fruits. Finish seemed a little metallic, but otherwise quite enjoyable.

Had this in Houston, and I was impressed, as the craft beer scene seemed pretty thin. Bicuity, with a light hop finish. I could definitely drink a few of these.

Cloudy orange amber in color. Weak aroma of herbs and some citrus. Clean tasting with a bitter nutty malt finish. A nice amber overall but nothing I was excited about.

Dark Amber with a creamy off white head. Malty and slightly sweet. The hops need to stand out more. Overall a decent everyday beer.

On tap at Home Plate Bar and Grill in Houston, TX on 07/26/08. Clear amber body with a small creamy white head. Sweet grainy and fruity aroma. Grainy flavor, more fruity and pale malt. Medium body with moderately high carbonation.
