| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Nov 26, 2009 Bottle. This cap was a pain in the ass to get off. Pours a clear yellow body with a small fluffy white head. Aroma is bready, straw. Flavor is weak pale lager, macro style. Slightly sweet, dry. Drinkable swill, very un-Southern Tier and certainly not an Amber ale as I’ve come to know one. pete4999 (132), Buffalo, New York, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 2, 2009 Bottle. Bright golden yellow pour. Hazy. Nose almost smells like a wheat. Not much hops in the scent. Basically goes down crisp, like a slightly better version of a mass-produced American lager. I think this would be better on a hot summer day. tgncc (815), Bellmore, New York, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 18, 2009 Draught at New Beer. Grainy malty aroma, notes of wheat, banana. The color is pale yellow, tinge of red, white head. The flvaor is malts, cereal grains, wheat, banana, The finish is like the flavor, not much bitterness, more sweet. The mouthfeel is on the light side of medium. Not bad, not great. It’s a little wierd how this beer pulled in some of the characteristics of a weiss bier. blipp (1664), Newark, New Jersey, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 5, 2009 Bottle. Pours clear gold with a white head. Grainy malty aroma, light sweetness, light hops. The flavor also has grainy malt, with some light caramel sweetness and a hint of floral hops. Not bad. VeloVampire (489), Parkdale, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 10, 2008 On tap at the Empty Pint - poured clear deep golden, not really amber at all, with a frothy white head. Fruity, mineral green apple notes in the nose, and the flavour holds a pleasant light malt sweetness and mild hop bitterness in the finish. Solid, well-crafted all-malt lawnmower/fishing beer - nothing more, nothing less. Perhaps a golden/blonde ale? Seemed a bit light for an amber... schlomo (5), Agawam, Massachusetts, USA does not count | 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 20, 2008 Poured from bomber. Pure white head with tight white small bubbles that dissipated quickly. Moderate lacing. Smells fresh and non-complex. Not as hoppy or deep as other Southern Tier beers that I have sampled. I purchased this in Chautauqua County, NY. Supposed to be only for sale in this area. Can be found on draft in many of the local restaurants in the area. Good fresh simple drinking/summer beer.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 19, 2008 Draft at the Southern Tier Brewpub (The Empty Pint). Poured a clear a light golden amber with a bit of a fizzy white head. Aroma is light, crisp malt. Taste is clean and light - bit of grainy, slightly biscuity malt with a very light grassy hop bitterness. Finish is clean, not much lingering flavor to speak of. Decent session beer.

Corn and somewhat skunky aroma took me by surprise seeing bottle stated it was an amber ale. Yellow body with white head. Wet maled corn swill flavor that had a mediun bitter bite. Cool bottle with the big eagle on it.
