Clear dark amber color with a small sticky head that never really goes away and just turns into a surface covering lacing. Aroma is strong malty caramel. There are also some light fruit punch hops at the back end of the aroma. Taste is a bit watered down caramel sweetness with some light bark. Aftertaste is light sweet hops.
Sampler @ brewpub.

Appearance: Clear, orangey-copper body with a thin, off-white head. Smell: Fairly faint aroma of flowers and a vague pale maltiness. Taste: More of that mild pale maltiness with only a hint of sweetness. Floral, spicy hops with a mild bitterness, though all quite light. Clean finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. Somewhat watery mouthfeel. Drinkability: A tolerable brewpub amber ale.

05 GCBC. Amber with a hint of red and clear. Some caramel malty aromas and flavors, but everything was tainted by buttery diactyl unfortunately.
