3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle (12oz). Deep clear copper, decent frothy off-white head, nice lacing. MUCH nicer aroma than their IPA - nice roast, pine/resin hops - nice for an amber, like TF light. The taste - meh, grain, very weak hops (nothing like the nose), nice dry finish. Lightly chewy body, dry, a whisper of astringency, not much carbonation - quick finish, dry lightly bitter aftertaste. Decent.
3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Light caramel aroma. Copper/ochre color, thin off white head.The taste is a little woody, but rather weak. A little buttery in the end when warm. Clean and good quality, but just very weak. Wanting in hops. Despite my rating, I like it, I ’m just craving more hops in this one. Is there such a thing as a beer apertif???

This is part of a beer club. Had only one bottle but was decent for the price. Poured great and had a nice finish. Would do again.

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
This amber ale pours a medium amber gold color from a 12oz bottle. Small sized white foamy head, which dissipates slowly. Aroma is toffee and caramel, slightly fruity and hoppy. Medium bodied amber. Malts are fruity and sweet, caramel and toffee. Hops are floral and spicy. Good balance. A biscuty and floral amber. Lively carbonation. Not bad at all. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is crisp and dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Very nice orange ruby color. Quality hard candy aroma. Some noticeable carbonation but fairly flat. Mild refined hop bitterness that’s less than many pilsners. Finish is slightly wet wood that has a medium length bitter impression.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
12 oz bottle from sample case. Poured a nice amber color. Nice taste with a lot of flavor, but has a heavy water taste (iron?) which is ok being from western PA. Smooth finish with good aftertaste.
