Draft at the brewpub. Medium caramel malt aroma with some floral hop. Amber color with an off-white head. Medium body with spritely carbonation. Flavor is more floral hop than malt. Finish is more malty than hoppy. Good drink.

This is more toward orange than amber. It came to the table with a nice white head that tended to last. It had fair lacing. It has a nice fizz and is fairly clear so a person looking for a more traditional beer would like the appearance. This beer has a light hop nose with little malt aroma. The taste is clean and light. Minimal hop flavor and a light malt finish. I has a quick finish that is slick and not too lasting. This one is just one step up from the pale ale and not over powering. This is a beer that can be drunk in quantity.

A nicely poured reddish brown color with a bit more carbonation and a very faint whispy off white head. Aromas are faintly hoppy and full of toasted malts, finish is slightly sweet.

This brew appealed to me on sight with a gorgeous, cider brown body and a small ring of carbonation. Small wafts of malt in the nose preceded a rather toasty malt flavor. Complex for an amber with enough of a hop balance--though they definitely take a back seat-- and a pleasant, but indiscernale flavor tones. Little bitterness. This is an amber worth having around.
