Nothing special here. A touch of citrus hops which i wasnt expecting in an amber, but it was heavily malted.

(Sample Date: 1/17/2009 Source:Cally’s Brewing Co.) Grainy with a floral hop character in aroma. Clear light amber golden. Fairly hoppy floral grassy notes in flavor with enough caramel maltyness to back. Dry very bitter finish.

From a sampler at the brewpub.Pours an amber color with a medium white head. Moderate lacing. Floral hop aroma with some caramel notes. Taste is citrus hops, rye and some graininess in the finish. Medium bodied.

Draught at Cally’s. Easily one of my favorite from my local micro-brewery. Hazy orange pour with a nice frothy white head. Great bold flavors of malt and some sweet caramel somewhere in there. Noticeable floral hops, which are a rarity with Cally’s brew. Great job guys.

hazy amber, thin white head, nice lace, light sweet vienia aroma with a hint of floral hops, complex blend of malts with toasted, biscuit, and sweet vienia flavors, nice hop bitterness balances the malts and leaves a nice bitter finish in its wake

On tap at the brewpub, July 2006. Mid amber colour. Light aroma (it was served a bit cold) with some aromatic hop notes. Much more hop character in the flavour. Lots of grapefruit and a modicum of bitterness. Went down nicely. After the sampler, this was the one I had an extra pint of.
