Reddish golden. Light flowery hop aroma. Good caramelly malt flavor. Finish is sweet and crisp from hops. Quite nice.

The is caramel and malt on the nose. The taste has a little molasses and sweetness. However, this does not turn me off, like the other reviewers. Lots of malt. A nice light, spring beer. A light brown, clear color.

Trying to smell this beer, I diped my nose in a little to far. I've heard of beer coming out someone's nose before, but going in through it is a new one to me. Yea, Ok, this is my last beer of the night.

Light brown or dark amber color,small head that faded fast.Nice malty aroma with hints of raisin and mild hops slightly sweet aroma as well.Malty caramel flavor with some very mild hints of hops fairly sweet.The after taste seems to be mostly caramel with some mildly detectable hops,but mostly sweet caramel.Nice mellow feel in the mouth,it's a bit sweeter then i like but over all it is a decent brew.

Watery red with a very thin bubbly head. Aroma is of apples, make that candied apples the kind that has that red coating on them instead of caramel. Very sweet beer, I cant finish it.

Orange color with no real head. Smell is mildly sweet. Slight smoke/roasted flavor. Has the deep malt taste and aftertaste that you usually find in amber ales. Hopped just enough to be interesting.

Draught. Inviting toffee malt aromas, very light flowery hop traces. This is all about the malt, with the hops serving only to balance. Very nicely done, easy drinking for its size.

Dark orange amber color with a lighter tan head. Aroma of pipe tobacco, light toffee and malt. Very malty in flavor. Really something to chew on. Slightly sweet, mildly toasty, and a light alcohol finish. Leaves a nice malty after taste. I’ve had this before, but this seem better than prrevious batches.
