Dark amber, fine lacing. Very limited aroma like all the basic Cambridges. Grainy nose contains a bit of floral hops and nutty malt and that’s it. Really not much going on in mouth: a faint earthiness and a stronger graininess. Nevertheless, comfortable texture and clean nature.

On tap at brewery: nice mahagony-deep red color, no carbonation. Nice creamy head, medium nutty, slightly smokey taste. Medium lasting, band aid interval though.

2004 draught @ the brewery. Amber appearance, white head, wavy appearance. Aroma of grain, very sweet malt, dusty earthiness. Flavor is pretty light and restrained, low if any hops apparency, honey, nuts, more honey and a hint of fruitiness on the end. Good smooth texture. Pleasant, easy drinking amber, but the flavor is not up to par with some of the better ambers I’ve had.

There really is a chocolate taste in here! Much like Hershey’s milk chocolate. Sweet, flowery aroma. Smokey texture and flavor notes.

Dark ruby color and very malty aroma. NIce body with slight roasty malt flavor. Fits the Irish Amber style guidelines to a tee. I enjoyed this beer even though Irish Amber isn’t one of my favorite styles.
