Had this beer on 6/22/2006. Aroma is rich with a sweet roasted malt scent and fresh hops. Color is a light brown with light carbonation and thin tight head. Taste is full of flavor from malty richness to a fresh happiness. Starting with medium body it goes down with a crisp feel. Finish burst out at you with a roasted malt flavor followed by fresh hops and a nice bitterness. It seems a bit hoppy for an Amber, but I love this beer.

Draught, Falling Rock. Head is mostly diminishing. Body is dark amber. Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (toasted/roasted grain, cookie), lightly hoppy (flowers), lightly to moderately yeasty (dough), with a light note of smoke. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly acidic, moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Decent enough, the light smoky note helps the aroma (which suffers from a lot of raw yeastiness). Good enough balance as well. Nothing great, but ok.

On tap @ Falling Rock poured a clear reddish brown with a small lasting amber head. Aromas of carmel, toffee and light fruitiness. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of bread, carmel and toffee with a smooth lingering finish.

Bomber from brewery, pours pale amber with flat head. Lighter hops, malt and slight caramel flavor without a lot of complexity. A very drinkable beer; overall not bad.

Tap at brewpub. Pours a nice amber but with flat bubbles; nice head. Smells like a woodsy wort. Flavor is smoky malt. Average mouthfeel. Surprised by the smoke flavor... BEAUTIFUL Rocky Mountain National Park road for a namesake.

[Colorado Road Trip – 2006] A deep amber color with a nice head. Rich in malt I really liked the awesome flavors this beer had. The hops where subtle and the flavors and spices where great. Good Beer…
