3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Poured from a bottle. Appearance is a dark gold, to copper with a beige head of foam, that lingers, for awhile and leaves a pleasant coat of lacing. Aromatics are floral and resinous. Crisp does well in describing the aroma. Tastes fairly bitter. This could definitely pass for a Pale Ale of some sort. The caramel malts make a subtle appearance post-swallow in the aftertaste. Velvety mouthfeel, just right density, and about as great a finish as I can imagine. This is a kick ass amber ale.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Poured from bottle. White fizzy head that disappeared quickly. Aroma was light citrus and just the smallest hint of pine. Palate was light, with a light to medium amount of hops. Overall not a bad bottle, think very light IPA or fuller bodied pale ale. No malt presence.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pour from a 12 oz bottle. Clear amber brew with off white head. Aroma of citrus, pine, and a little caramel malt. Taste is moderate caramel at the start transitioning to citrus and pine hops, nicely complex and prominent. Ends with a long bitter finsish. More like an APA than an amber to me, but a fine brew that is very enjoyable.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Pours an amber bottle with a moderate off white head. Aroma of pine, citrus, and toasted malts. Taste is of toasted malts, citrus, grapefruit, caramel. Pretty nice balance. Medium bodied with fizzy carbonation. A nice amber ale.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours amber with tiny white head. Aroma is hops and caramel. Taste is piny hops with a rich caramel finish. It’s ok but nothing special.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
The aroma is very hoppy with pine, grass, and citrus hops. The malts are sweet caramel and balance it out nicely. The appearance is light amber with a medium head. The taste is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. Overall this amber is much more like a good ipa.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Kinda dumb. I guess it’s the style but just tastes like a stale ipa to me.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Grapefruit and pine aroma. Grapefruit and pine flavor. Medium bodied. Pine and grapefruit lingers with light malt.
