Commercial Description:
A well balanced American Amber Ale. Smooth malt character balanced with a healthy dose of Cascade hops and aged on oak chips. Our most popular beer.

Draft pint at the brewpub, 9/18/06: Dark red with a really thin, yet rocky, head. Nice fully consistency with a nice full-up body. Perfectly built but un-biscuity maltiness with just a twist of hoppy bitterness. One of the better ambers I’ve had in a while.

Growler poured a clear amber with a minimal ivory head. Aromas of carmel, a hint of oak and some citrus notes. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of carmel, a hint of toffee, light citrus and a bit of oak with a smooth lingering woody finish. A very tasty amber indeed!
