COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Amber Waves IBU: 30 ABV: 4.85% This American Amber highlights the Pacific Northwest "Cascade" hop variety in the flavor, bittering and aroma phases of the boil. The Cascades compliment a blend of base and specialty malts including Caramel, Munich and roasted barley. This blend of malt and gives us a beautiful dark caramel color with a rich red undertone. The hop additions strike a perfect balance with the malt to create an exceptional clean and crisp ale.

deyholla (3154) - Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA - NOV 9, 2010
On tap at the brewpub. Poured a clear copper amber with a white head that dissipated to the edges slowly and laced slightly. Aroma had lots of grain and hay notes with a very slight grass hop note. Flavor was similar with hay and grass hops with a slight pine bite in the finish.

Served on draft at the brewpub. Pours a clear amber color with a medium head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of caramel, nuts, leafy hops and light fruity notes. The taste is nutty with caramel and a hoppy finish. Medium bodied.

Silphium (2711) - East Lansing, Michigan, USA - AUG 31, 2008
On tap at Walldorff. Hazy red-brown body, thick, puffy buff head. Toasty nose with light sweetness and floral hops. Toasty, somewhat bitter body, with floral, spicy hops, toast, and hints of burnt caramel and dark fruits. Cerealy. A quaffable session ale.
