esjaygee (664), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Jun 22, 2008 Amber with off-white head. Aroma of caramel and sweet malts. Taste of caramel, sweet malts with a mild bitter finish. Not as good as Capital amber though that’s classified as a Vienna and this an American Dark Lager. Decent but not great. BDR (1850), Roseville, Minnesota, USA Mar 27, 2008 thanks to skyview for sharing. Dark copper color with a sweet malty aroma. Faintly nutty but an off finish. capitalbrewer (17), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Mar 22, 2008 Virtually no head. Lightly reddish brown in color. Thin on the palate, and goes down easy. The taste is overall pretty ordinary and bland, with no genuine hop presence. Nothing special.
If you’re in Middleton looking for an amber, you’re better off with the Wisconsin Amber from Capital Brewery. General_Gao (2357), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Jan 13, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poured a clear medium orange color. Head was two fingers high and off white with decent retention. Aroma was of husky, syrupy grain with a little molasses. Slightly sweet with minimal hop bitterness of about 1 out of 10. The flavor was predominantly cereal grain with a some mushy raisin and subdued grassy hops. Bland and unoffensive, yes. Bad, not quite. JK (2355), Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA Dec 21, 2007 Not very good. Plain dry malt. Thin body, and unprocessed grain flavor. No hop presence. Light red color.
