Aroma is a nice hop scent. Color is a bright clear amber with good carbonation a thin tight head. Taste is mildly roasted and hoppy. Starting with a medium body it goes down crisp with a clean feel. Finish comes in with a mild roasted malt flavor that has a slight sweetness to it then a nice hop flavor comes in back by a mellow bitterness. After taste is clean with the bitterness fading slowly. Its a nice Amber Ale and its better then there Cinder Cone Red.

Bottle courtesy of scrizzz. Pours a pretty clear deep red with a small white head. Flavor of sweet malt and light fruits. Flavor is light with nice fruitiness. Also a light spiciness that is really tasty. Definitely the best organic beer I’ve had (it’s a short list, but still). Nice amber with a spicy kick.

Bottle. Aroma of fresh, crisp, leafy greens, coffee-ish notes, caramel malt (increasing with time), sour apple, maybe a touch of pine? Flavor malty with a spicy hop edge and a good deal of earth. Very nice beer, and the first organic brew (admittedly out of VERY few) that has impressed me.

Very solid organic ale, hops balance and lend a small nip at the end. Also just a pretty pour.

Pours a hazy dark amber color from the bottle with an off-white head. Smells of appleseed and taste of red apples, caramel, and slight butter. Probably the best organic brew I’ve yet to taste.

I would never have purchased this beer, but found it in my 6 pack of Mothership Wit. I hate "organic" on a beer label. Classified as an amber but drinks like an IPA. Citrus "northwest" profile. Common for a micro.
