Damn, this beer pours a majestic mahogany body and a supple but full creamy tan head. The aroma is certainly nutty but one is unable to overlook the pulse of the hops, reminds me of cantaloupe. The flavor is also nutty, woodsy, full with melons, apples, notes of peach; Very nice spicy crisp bittering and dry finish. The palate is silky and buttery, this is a terrific Amber ale!

Nov 18, 2003 Side-by-side with the Rip Curl: sweeter and fuller. A clean rather than bitter aftertaste and less agressive hops. Pretty good.

Nov 10, 2003 Malty aroma, rich amber color, white lacey head, roasted flavor with chocolate/nut notes and a hoppy bite. A different amber, but one worth trying.

Nov 8, 2003 Pours a medium mohogany. Pretty thick tan head. Medium spicy hop nose with dark malts mixed in. I dont care for chocolate malts in the Amber style. This not a bad beer at all. Its just not what I like in this style. A little to hearty. Bordering Brown Ale, which is a style I never buy.

Nov 2, 2003 Beautiful amber color. Nose of flowers. No overwhelming taste, but hints of malt and hops.

Nov 2, 2003 Appears a golden-red, with a nice head that sticks around for a while. Aroma is mostly bready, with a little cherry fruity goodness. Flavour is moderate - nothing special. Very nice mouthfeel though.
