12 oz bottle courtesy of Headbanger. Aroma is a sour malt scent with tones of citrus. Color is a hazy amber with very good carbonation and an almost out of control head. When I poured it I got 2/3 of a glass of foam. Taste is fizzy, light and bitter. Starting with lighter medium body it foams up in your mouth and goes down fizzy. Finish is a lemon and malt taste backed by a full bitterness. After taste is dry with some citrus. I don’t like the fizzy carbonation in this brew, it seems it keep the flavor from coming though.

Typical American ice cream parlor flavored brewery stuff. Not real beer by European standards. Almost no head, little in the way of natural or unnatural carbonation. Dark almost cloudy amber. Sweet and sticky, lacks much substance other than the sweet sticky after taste that turns coppery. Not recommened.

Bottle from Va. Orange amber with a fizzy head. Malty bready aroma and taste with a nice crisp finish.

Again, stole this one out of my dad’s Christmas present (still sitting in the fridge). Very malty, chewy, with some caramel flavor in there. Alright but not great.

Bottle on closeout at Sam’s. Bottled 2/27/08. I half-expected this to be a diacetyl bomb like the Dominion Lager I had a few days ago, but upon first smell and taste this does not seem to be the case. Pours a lightish orange amber with a small white lace. Nose is very malt forward with hints of dough, nuts, english type hops. Flavor is more of the same, not much sweetness from the malts, mainly very grainy with some light bitterness from the hops. Not fruity or citrusy in any way. A very diiferent amber ale from what I am used to. No real off flavors but this really lacks complexity. Drinkable.
