Bottle at the brewery sampling. Really only my second old ale, but this seemed much better than my previous attempt at the type. Just seemed more flavourful and complex.

22oz bottle, purchased at the brewery. Pours clear amber, with a small tan head. fairly sweet aroma, with caramel, grain, vanilla, and vegetal character. Flavor is even sweeter than the aroma, with caramel coating the palate. Mild hops, grain, and wildflower flavors attempt to temper the sweetness, but this still comes across as too sweet

Had this on drought in Bar Harbor. I thought it would be a very special beer with alot of complex flavors but instead i tasted a generic amber ale. i wasnt as impressed with this brew as i was with some of the other offerings from atlantic brewing company

Draught at the brewery. Pours dark amber. Nose is slightly fruiy, a bit peaty, and sweet caramel. Taste is a bit of sweet malt up front, a bit toasty, with a really interesting combination of fruity and peaty noes blending with a hint of floral hops, leading to a definite herbal, almost heather note on the finish. Mouthfeel is fairly lightly carbonated, with a medium body. Very interesting brew - almost like taking the malt body of an alt bier and matching it to the peaty and heather notes of a Scottish ale. Quite a success in my opinion.

Pours an amber color with a thin and bubbly white head. Not dense at all. Lacing is minimal. Green apple aroma with the skin intact. Scent is grainy as well. Flavor is fruity upfront and malty as hell. Sugary sweet at the finish with hints of Werther’s Original. Not incredibly complex but very easy to drink.
