| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 21, 2008 Pours a fairly light copper color with a thin white head. Aroma is pretty faint but is sweet and malty. Taste is malty, with caramel and pale malt flavors. Not very hoppy for a pale ale, probably the least hoppy APA I have had. Still not a bad beer though.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 2, 2007 Picked up two 12-oz bottles via Berghoff Sampler Pack at Steve’s Liquor & More in Madison, Wisconsin. Pours a semi-hazy amber brew with a fast dissolving off-white head. Aroma is of a simple caramel malt beverage with some grassy hops. Taste is medium body hardly any carbonation, with a watery biscuit flavor. Finish is grainy with a quick dry bitter aftertaste. fiulijn (7330), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy

Had this on tap at the Cafe in O’Hare while laying over for a connection to Columbus. By the way, the bartender’s hot! This was labelled Berghoff Amber and that’s what the tap handle read also. Very subtle nose of wheat with a hint of caramel and flowers. The brew is a sparkling honey with a brief flash of an off white frothy head that leaves no trace of lace. The brew is very sweet with no acidity, the finish is caramel and flowers. The light creamy body is lively, and the finish feels chalky. patrick767 (2033), fort wayne, Indiana, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 10, 2007 bottle - Pours light amber with a medium sized head that leaves a touch of lacing. The aroma is light caramel malt. The flavor is sweet caramel malt with some decent, mild hops. I too am confused by the commercial description of an APA. To me it’s an amber. Oh well. It’s light and very easy to drink with just adequate flavor. Not bad.
