Commercial Description:
Loosely based on Vienna style, Wisconsin Amber is a rich, malty lager balanced out with mild hop bittering and enticing hop flavor. Very fulfilling. Very drinkable.

(Bottle) Pours an amber color with a small white head. Aroma of light toasted malts. Initial taste is of sweet caramel, as well as some hazelnut. Palate was near average. The caramel got a little bit cloying towards the end. Not a bad beer, but somehow a disappointment.

Sampled on the brewtour in their beer garden. I’m surprised I haven’t rated this one yet. Well at least I have a Vienna rating before I go there. Malty grain nose and flavor a little fruit, a little sweet. Hmm, trying all these capital beers reminds me of the duff factory. "Here we have Duff dark, duff light, and duff dry" all from the same tube. I like the clean consistency of their beers but I’m surprised by the lack of variety in their middle of the road beers. I do wish they had the eisphyre and dopplebocks on tap. Oh well cheers, Capital!

Sample at the brewery. Amber with small white head. Aroma of fruit and not much else. Sweet malt and somewhat fruit, smoe bitterness. Med body, somewhat creamy. Not too exciting.

Had a tap of this at Bodega Brw Pub downtown La Crosse, Wisconsin. Poured with a nice off-white head and plenty of lace. Clear color. Light aroma. Slightly hoppy. Mild malt. Very drinkable. Session beer. Perhaps a tad watery. But that might be just cause I was just drinking a really huge beer. nice finish.

A very clean clear medium amber with a large quickly fading head. Aroma is light slightly sour malts, hops. Flavor is candied malts, detected a tad of banana, light hops. I liked this one quite a bit.

The bottle says "Rated #1 Brewery" or somthing like that....im wondering...by whom??? Not a bad beer, not a very exciting style, but very drinkable stuff, quite malty with a touch of hops in there. I like all the WI brews typically, as its where i grew up.
