On draft at Cato’s Ale House in Oakland. Arrived a dark reddish amber with a moderate creamy head. Aroma of toasty malts floral hops and citrus. Crisp hop dominant flavors, balanced by robust malts featuring toasty and light caramel notes, spicy citrus, grapefruit rind finish. Medium body and assertive carbonation.

I’m not sure this is the right one but from the other reviews seem similar to my experience. Labeled a "hoppy red", lots of caramel in the nose, citrus hops. Color is a nice reddish brown, no head poured. Quite sweet caramel followed by sourish grapefruit, pretty thick MF, some pine, dry finish.

(Draft: E.J. Phair Alehouse in Concord, CA) This is a pretty big and hoppy amber, balanced from start to finish, caramely and moderately sweet, with a moderately bitter non-citrusy hops that provides quite the bite in the finish. The caramely malt is sweet without seeming sugary. The nose is mostly hoppy, but not citrusy, and a light caramel aroma sits in the background. Medium "plus" in body, even in the finish, and the hops gives the beer some crispness on the palate. Pretty much a straight amber color. Large, creamy, light tan head takes many minutes to settle to a thin, yet still full layer, and as I’m drinking the beer, a dense curtain of lace is left on the entire surface of the pint glass. Though alcohol is typical for the style, this really seems like a big amber, certainly bigger, more flavorful, and with more body than the typical amber. Very solid amber.

Draft. Called a hoppy amber. Dark amber with a beige head. Some citrus hop aroma. Flavor of citrus (grapefruit), some pine with malt backing. Some caraeml and earthy biscuit flavors as well. Easy to drink.
