COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Full-bodied and proud! This amber-hued lager may be an Octoberfest-style beer, but it is available to be enjoyed year round. A strong, robust micro-brewed lager, using imported 2- row Pale malt and 2 distinct Munich specialty malts, Sin City Amber balances its full-bodied, malt character with imported German Hallertauer hops.

Enjoyed this a couple of years back on the Miracle Mile while on vacation in Las Vegas. A decent brew, but nothing special.

Strykzone (2906) - Wood River, Illinois, USA - JUL 28, 2009
Enjoyed at the Flamingo brewpub. A tan head of large bubbles. Light malt and roasted nose. Sweet malty flavor with nuts and a bit of floral notes. Well carbonated.

Grovlam (4106) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - JUN 19, 2009
Draught @ Flamingo hotel Sin City brewery. Large creamy beige head that mostly lasted. Fair display of lacework. Cloudy golden color. Light malty caramel, toasted and a hint of nutty notes. Over the palate a whiff of floral notes. Light bodied with an average carbonation. Light sweet flavor with a hint of bitterness. Light sweet malty finish.

Barreras (368) - Diamond Bar, California, USA - JUN 7, 2009
Pours a light copper color with minimal head. Some light citrus notes. Overall a basic beer that is akin to your average commercial beers, not a good depiction of an amber style beer.

alexanderj (2830) - Gilbert, Arizona, USA - MAY 17, 2009
On tap at there Planet Hollywood location. Served in a plastic cup, which is quite lame, but it is Vegas. Not a big fan of this one at all. Looked fine, a dark amber color with a nice head. Aroma of caramel and sweet malt. There was something very offputting about the flavor; something akin to rotting rye. Can’t see myself every having this one again.

sebletitje (4011) - Enghien, BELGIUM - MAY 15, 2009
draft @ Sin City inFlamingo, Vegas. Pours copper, off white head. Aroma is malt and caramel. Taste, malty with very light notes of caramel, hoppy finish, possibly some light fruit notes. Too basic and boring, yet drinkable.

VTHopHead (1340) - Barre, Vermont, USA - MAY 3, 2009
Draft - Poured a nice clear amber in color with a small whitish head that faded quickly. Aroma is weak with mostly malt and little hops. Flavor pretty much follows... not really much here flavor-wise. Disappointing...

BOLTZ7555 (1909) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - MAR 29, 2009
On tap @ Planet Hollywood, LV. I think they left something out in this; the aroma and flavor. Nothing was really "off" here but nothing is really worth mentioning, either. Weak malty aroma with faint sweetness. Light caramel noticed in the flavor and moderate carbonation. Forgettable.
