Birdiebeagle (777), Perkasie, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 28, 2009 Bottle Pours a hazy amber with a thin quickly deminishing light tan head. The aroma is of tea, and a little hoppy. Has an okay carbonation. The flavor is sweet with hints of grains. Has a watery texture. The body is light. This one kind of misses for me. A weak finish and nothing in the aftertaste worth holding on to. chicagodri (1021), Chicago, Illinois, USA Oct 24, 2009 Pours amber with a small tan head. Aroma of slight hops - tea like (similar to a Surly brew I had). Sweet caramel malty aroma of flavor but with a little bit of bitterness. Solid brew, amber is just not the most exciting style. watson1977 (250), , Pennsylvania, USA Oct 16, 2009 perfect amber color with a medium light colored head...visible co2 action in the glass. retention and lacing could be better. very sweet and fruity...fresh subtle citrus...malty aroma with some caramel. flavor is much the same but has a slight chalkiness to it...light hops notable in the finish. very light bodied but not watery. decent amber. Pipper (225), Ohio, USA Sep 16, 2009 Bottle into pint. Not what I expected from an amber, a style of which I’m not a huge fan. Poured a nice clear, dark amber, but no head. Oily pour. Lots of malt and spice on the nose and the flavor is pretty mild comparatively. Not bad not great. tomthompson89 (1456), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 8, 2009 Clear amber color, some tan head. Nose is tea and malt little hops. flavor is odd but good caremel malts with and odd soapy hop flavor. good amber kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Aug 31, 2009

michael-pollack (2600), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 27, 2009 12oz. Bottle: Slight nuts, slight cocoa, light malts, and yeast. Poured deep amber/light copper in color with a small, tan head that diminished but lasted throughout. Cloudy. Lightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet. Tastes of light malts, light caramel, slight cocoa, and slight yeast. Light to medium body. Thin, slightly dry texture. Average carbonation. Light yeast, slight cocoa, and slight caramel finish is a tad dry. Not all that good. dmac (1418), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Aug 26, 2009 12 oz bottle from Capones. Pours an alright looking amber body sitting underneath ine finger of foamy off white head after a rather vigorous pour. Aroma had an initial aroma of grass, lemons and cereal. Upon warming the lemon scent takes on a more fruity infected aroma. The body helps confrim this with some really bubbly carbonation and a slick mouthfeel. The flavor has that hint of infection creeping in with some faint cherry and band aid along with some caramel malts. The more I sip this one the more I am thinking infection.
