| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 6, 2005 Updated: Dec 2, 2007A 12 oz bottle of Troegs Amber Ale-While pouring a pint glass, shows lots of carbonation. Clear amber color with a full head. Smell the hops. A good, crisp ale! Would be nice if the dating was easier to find and then read. Of the 6 bottles, only 1 was legible enough to determine it was bottled Oct ’04.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 19, 2004 Dark orange, clear with a very light off-white head that is completely gone after 30 seconds. Aroma is quite tempting for an amber ale. It's very sweet (malty honey, caramel, maple and the likes), but sure doesn't lack the hop counterpart (spruce, perfume). It tastes fresh, with a good cookie maltiness, slight notes of tobacco/smoke and a balancing spicy hops finish. Still quite sweet overall, but it works with me here. Mouthfeel is great, silky and creamy. Great april beer: Sugar Times as we say in Quebec. Very nice session ale, immensely quaffable, bad style executed well imo. hopscotch (5558), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 21, 2003 This beer rocks! World Class brew!
Holy shit! Another fine Pennsylvania brewery! California better start watching out!
This light copper/amber colored beer has a small, creamy off-white head. Mostly diminishing with very interesting and nice lacework.
The aroma is of Spruce, Juniper (Gin)... ok, anything evergreen! Also, black pepper and lemon make an appearance in the nose.
The flavor is very mild and pungent. Fun Spring/Summer beer.
Light-bodied with a watery mouthfeel and lively carbonation.
Lengthy, lightly bitter, crisp and clean finish.
Excellent Summer beer!

Good light sweetness in the full body with a very nice crisp hop finish. A remarkably refreshing and clean amber. Thanks urbnhautebourg! duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 2, 2006 Bottle. A decent amber ale. Lots of hop in the aroma and again on the palate. Some grapefruit and pine flavours come thorugh, with some slightly sweet caramelly malt notes. Perhaps this was a touch too sweet. ThomasE (5178), Copenhagen, Denmark
