Typical of an amber. Pours amber with a white head. Malty and well balanced. Very drinkable.

Dark amber/orange color. Pleasant slightly sweet flavor, but a little on the light side. Hop presence is up=front but leaves no aftertaste. Good for a hot afternoon.

Grainy nose with grassy hops. Carmel, herbs, sweet malt, and a taouch of bitterness. Finishes malty.

This is another fine beer from an already fine Brewery. Its amber color makes it an excellent choice for parties or any occasion.

2004 bottle. Pours a caramelly, rusty brown with some light red-gold tinges. Good white head, lots of bubbles and clear. Aroma of earthiness, yeast, some dry caramel and toffee and a shot of dry grainy hops. Flavor is lightly sweet, a bit metallic, texture is slightly coarse and moderately carbonated. Watery, medium body, with some hints of brown/red fruits. Average.

Pours amber with a small, white head that disappears. Aroma is pleasant and malty with raisins and caramel. Flavor is surprisingly fruity; malty with light raisins, and light hops in the finish. Watery. Not bad, not great.

12 oz bottle. Very clear medium amber, little head...bit cidery-looking. Fragile malty nose, hint of caramel. Pleasant full body, caramel, a little smoky bitterness; but rather watery and brackish in the finish. Another mediocre, just drinkable beer from this oh-so-average brewery.
