Jan 29, 2007 I was shocked to discover that this beer was amber colored and that it had a medium sized head that was fluffy. I had never seen that before in an amber ale. What’s even more flabbergasting is that it smelled like a malt-forward beer, lightly fruity, with hints of caramel while having very little hop bitterness. Much to my amazement, the flavor was rather sweet with only a touch of bittering hops at the end. What will they think of next? A hoppy IPA?
Oh yeah, this stuff is too expensive.

Jan 15, 2007 Very nice looking, cloudy amber ale. There was a lot of cappucino taste in this. The hops were also very noticable with light hints of caramel and some various earthy flavors. Nice dry finish. Looks better than it tastes but overall is a decent drink - above average.

Jan 9, 2007 I thought this was quite good for the medicore amber ale style. Pour is fairly dark amber with decent off-white head. Aroma of caramel, toffee, malt, and hops. Flavors of sweet malt, caramel, toffee, and enough hops to balance the beer. A nice enjoyable amber.

Jan 6, 2007 Bottled. Caramel and hops nose, light citrus and fruit, certainly lemon and peach. Sweet with some cookie dough. Clear red body with a foamy beige head. Tastes caramelly with a balanced bitter. Finishes with some dry biscuit and flowery hops. Light bubbles on the tongue fade into smooth light-medium body. There really is a nice balance struck here, and a surprisingly good mix of dark fruity sweetness and bready dryness, but it’s too light and hollow.

Dec 31, 2006 pours an almost clear amber. Medium to large off white head. Aroma is sweet malt, light notes of fruit. Taste is dark caramel, apples, very well balanced with hop bitterness. Very good amber.

Dec 2, 2006 smooth, sweet and tasty. I little sour aftertaste and very dry finish. I would skip this one.
