Commercial Description:
An American-style lager that is sweet and malty. Brewed with German malt and hops, this lager is full bodied with soft malt flavors and subtle hop character.

This dark lager pours reddish and offers a nice feeling of sweet malt. This malt then gives way to the hops that allow for a nice crisp balanced finish.

Sample from tap at the brewpub in Canal street. Pours red with a light brown/off-white head. Toffee caramel malty aroma. Flavour is malty, slight yeasty, minor metallic note. Good hoppiness blending in with the toffee malt.

Sample at Beer Works Fenway: Pours a clear light amber color with a thin light khaki head that dissipates rapidly. Spotty lacing. Aroma of crystal malts and a bit of hops. Light body with a sweet malt flavor offset by hops. The finish is creamy and sweet with not much aftertaste. Overall I am firmly in the "Where’s the fire?" column.

(Canal Street) Crystal clear copper body with beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, earthy. Taste is moderately sweet, caramel, some bread, earthy, light chocolate. Light-medium body, low carbonation.

(Canal St. Location) Camamel flavors. Very sweet tasting. Hops blended in. Not 9-alarmy at all... not on fire, certainly. Very relaxing. Light copper color.

tap @ canal boston. deep orange sunset copper hues...sweet caramel aroma...nice and smooth... "Why the alarms... What’s the emergency?" This is a beer to sit back and relax with.

Amber golden color, I was told this was actually a bottom-fermented brew. Some bitterness of finish, and some flavor, but only marginally more than the general urine-yellow lagers.

Very different beer. IT’s called an amber, but it really tastes like something between an ale and a belgian white. Creamy palate, but very strange spice in the flavor. Not a big fan
