Commercial Description:
With a fury of hop flavor and a hint of malt backbone, this west coast amber is part ale, part sensory eruption, and all American.

Pours a gorgeous reddish hued amber with a beige creamy head that floats on top like a scoop of french vanilla ice cream. A bit of lacing completes the work of art. Caramel and fruit lightly entice the nose. The body is not as heavy as expected, and the massive supply of hops don’t show until the swallow. The aftertaste of hops is strong, wonderful, and possibly eternal. I’m still tasting them an hour after I drank the bottle. Very nice!!!

Pours deep amber with haze. Nice, strong hop and caramel malt aroma. Malt taste comes through first with moderate hop finish. A tiny bit sweet.

Amber pour. Caramel malt, light fruity esters and floral hops in the aroma. Flavor has lots of caramel with a balance of hops. Nice.

12 oz bottle from my GTMW trip to Wisconsin. Pours a hazy dark amber, bits of brown and ruby, fairly dark for the style, well hazed, small beige head that stays at it’s level, laces better than expected. Aromas are a good malty caramel base, but citrusy grapefruit and floral hops take on a bit stronger, bitter with toasty toffee, grainy, biscuits. Well hopped sweet Amber type. Initial is lighter end of medium bodied, a good bitterness, citrusy lemon and grapefruit, florals, a touch of gumball, toffee and caramel underneath, a bit toasty, grainy, biscuity. Better hopped than most Amber Ales, with a touch of pine in there. This is enjoyable, crisp grainy and caramel sweetness linger on the backend with some decent bitterness sticking to the palate. I’d drink this more often if it were my local option. Pretty good.

12oz bottle. nice light brown amber shade with an off-white quickly disappearing foam top. big citrus hop nose shows off a little biscuit malt in the back. crisp bright hop balanced by sweet malts. finish is clean, and the body is medium. im not a big fan of ambers but this one is better than average. not the typical banal crossover beer.

Dark amber pour with a light tan head. Caramel malt aroma and hops. Sweet, malty, caramel, and a nice hoppy finish. Lacing on the glass. Nice amber ale.

12 oz. bottle from Steve’s Liquor in Madison, WI. Grassy and citrusy hop aroma with some malt sweetness. Color is dark orange with a big, fluffy off-white head. Bitter piney hop flavor balanced with pineapple and tangerine; extremely pleasant. This one was quite a shock as I am typically not the biggest amber ale fan. An excellent beer.l

Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of sweet malt and citrus. Tastes sweet, citrusy and spicy with a slightly bitter finish.
