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.

Not good. Not good at all. I’m not positive that this (Sin City) is hooked up with Gordon Biersch, but if they are I think GB should run away as soon and as fast as they can.

On tap at Sin City’s MicroBrew Bar in the Miracle Mile shops of Planet Hollywood. The only thing amber about this beer was the color. Otherwise it was very watery in texture with a slight hoppy aftertaste. Not a very exciting beer but it is still drinkable.

Had on tap at the New York-New York. Nothing much to this beer. Reminded me of a macro amber....reddish orange color, thin off white head and medium bodied. Little aroma or actual taste, and the finish was okay. Nothing wrong with this beer, just nothing that stood out either. Ho-hum.

Pours a thin copper orange with a large head of frothy smallish bubbles. Arome a mild sweet and malty. The flavor was a bit metallic and astringent, I believe some caramel was trying to break through. Thin mouthfeel, somewhat flawed texture.

On tap at New York Casino. Wait, they gave me this in a plastic cup. What the hell. Why don’t they just pours it into my mouth. Anyway, with the cup and a terrible pour it is a light amber with no head. The aroma and taste are similar; light caramel malts and some hops.

2.5 is about right for this beer. It’s a carbon copy of Gordon Biersch Marzen, which is a very mediocre beer.
