Flying Monkey Amber Ale

Brewed by Flying Monkey Brewing
Style: Amber Ale
Olathe, Kansas USA

12 oz. bottle into tulip glass. Purchased at some grocery store in Brookfield, WI sometime in 2004. Not that great. Aroma is skunky and mildly biting. Fluffy small whitish head fully diminishes over a clear orange amber beer with visible carbonation. Tastes like a sweaty sock soaked in chardonnay; melony, and vaguely ass-ish. Hops like you’d taste in MGD. A little bit of bittering hops kick in on the finish, but they’re weak. No need to seek this one out.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a clear, dark amber with a small, off-white head. Malty, caramelish nose. Light, somewhat watery, body with some caramel with a touch of nuts and a very discreet sweetness. Lightly dry finish. Tasted at the Oklahoma Beer tasting March 06 hosted by mjames and lilannie. 250306

Light yellow appearance. Aroma is urine lemongrass and popcorn, almost chardonay like. Watery mouth has canned vegtables and soursweetness flavour.

Sampled from bottle, a gift from Dansting. This Kansas ale pours clear, light copper-brown with a creamy white head and nice lacing. It’s an attractive pour. Its aroma is clean and malty. The flavor has missed the mark. There is a subtle sourness that is present that I’m not too fond of, but apart from that, it’s clean and malty with just a hint of hop spice. Light to medium-bodied and well-carbonated. The sourness lingers in the finish. An all-right beer.

12 oz bottle, via KUEric. Pours a clear amber with a small fizzy white head. No sediment in bottle. Aroma is very light, with predominately grainy caramel malt. Light caramel malt flavor as well with a lightly bitter finish. Thin light bodied mouthfeel with prickly fizzy carbonation. Pretty generic Amber Ale, no major faults but nothing exciting.

Very light amber color, biscuity aroma very light carmel malt taste, very light overall taste. Pretty much a thirstquecher, no real flaws,

12 oz bottle. Short ffft when opened. Poured into a standard pint glass. Golden in color with a copper tinge. Teeny tiny carbonaton bubbles make a steady stream to a completely fading fizzy off white head. The aroma is like a bakery. Bread, toast, caramel, toffee-ish flavors. Maybe some diacytal. Medium-full bodied. A touch astrigant. An all around pretty uneventfull beer. I can’t say that I’d recommend it to anybody.

Many Thanks to PhillyBeer2112 for sending me this extra!

Poured a glossy amber body and a tall white head. The aroma is vaguely nutty and biscuity. The malts bring hints of caramel and some sweet corn flavors. A hint of Brazilian nuts… and a grassy hint of lemon in the finish… Cool Wizard of Oz like labeling labeling!
