Cambridge Amber

Brewed by Cambridge Brewing Company
Style: Amber Ale
Cambridge, Massachusetts USA

Very dark amber body. Great aroma for an amber - nutty, toasty, with a full complement of American hops. Nicely balanced.

(Draught) Pours a deep amber body with a moderate off-white head. Aroma of caramel, nuts, toastiness, and a hint of cocoa. Flavor of nuts, molasses, and grassy hops with a sticky mouthfeel and a bitter finish.

I had a pint from the tap at CBC. Appearance was excellent, a very dark amber color with a nice foamy head that lasted well. Aroma was interesting, strong and sweet with a trace of licorice. The flavor was rich and smoky with fair hoppiness. This was hoppier than some other ambers I’ve had. Carbonation OK. Palate was a bit watery, but there was some fizziness on the throat going down. A good beer, though I liked their Regatta Golden better.

Had this one on draught at the brewpub in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Hazy dark red pour with a lacy, tan head, sharp citrusy nose with some chocolate notes, dry, piney hoppiness, with a strong finish. A very nice amber.

This beer poured amber with a medium head. Notes of malt sweetness on the nose drive into a sweet and dark chocolate finish. You can see the hops at the tail end of the beer.

RB #900 Sample from tap at the brewpub. Pours clear amber with an off-white head. Toffee/caramel and slight roasted malt. Flavour is caramel malty, dry. No real bitterness. Dry almost coffee like finish.

A tried my brother’s and thought it was a caramelly version of the pale ale with less noticeable hops.
