Feb 14, 2007 Dark amber to light brown body with off-white head. Reminiscent of a nut brown with reddish overtones. Aroma is solid, with an abundance of sweet malts. Initial taste is moderately sweet, retreating to a light sweet and acidic with an average duration. Light to medium on the mouth, it has a clean, oily finish with soft carbonation.
This beer shatters our conceptions of an amber ale, boasting a complex palate with a sweet nose.

Jul 19, 2006 Draught. The glass is quite dark amber with a small white head. Aroma is mostly malty, slightly sweet and with noticeable smokiness. Flavor is similar, but with more pronounced smokiness and a bit of bitterness. Not really sure what to make of this; unusual for an amber ale, but on the whole it’s pretty good.

Jun 1, 2006 Above average amber (style?) ale. Very sweet upfront with a good show of malt. Gentle transition to a hoopy snap.

May 10, 2006 Sampled at the brewpub, dark copper color with some reddish highlights, and a tan-colored head, roasted and caramel malt notes, hint of nuttiness in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a roasted malt, chocolatey accent, dark dried fruits of figs, dates leading towards a sweet malt and slight dry finish.

Sep 1, 2005 Cambridge seems to have some problems with classifying their beers. Definitely not your typical amber. Very dark, almost tough to distinguish it from much darker beers, with a thick, resilient head. Intense aroma and flavor. Chocolate, caramel, light fruitiness and smoky flavors accompanied by a strong, hoppy finish. Pretty good, I thought.
