May 6, 2009 12 oz bottle pours light red, great hop aroma, yum! The flavor fits in perfectly with the aroma, nothing unexpected but enough going on to keep you interested. I could drink this beer all day long, all year long.

May 5, 2009 Bottled (Beer Hunter’s).
Cherry red color, small off-white head. Flowery, fresh hay hoppy aroma, also caramelly notes. Medium-bodied. Good pale malty, slightly bready and caramelly backbone. Balanced bitterness from resinous Amarillo hops. Nice session beer. Maybe not "amber ale", closer to IPA/APA-hybrid.

May 2, 2009 Pours dark copper color with tan head. Malty aroma, hint of hops and some fruityness. Taste the same, malts have a bigger presence in the taste, but balances well with the malts. Nice introduction to Green Flash. Looking forward to trying more from this brewery.

May 2, 2009 Bottle: #2 from the IPA sample series with ramenen. This is an excellent brew, strong pine, grassy and resin flavors in a great red-amber color with nice malty lining. Most definitely a Red IPA!

May 1, 2009 355ml bottle (Hilpea Hauki, Helsinki) - shared with Janne and Mirjukka - thanks!
Rich red, tiny head. Very sweet caramelly aroma, sticky hops too. Very sticky american hoppy ale. Sweet, hoppy, nothing interesting at all.

Apr 26, 2009 Big hop presence teetering between the realms of Pale Ale and IPA. Dark copper body with a spritzy white head. Citrus and flowery aroma. Bitter and filling, heavy malt body to counter the puckering hops. Tasted very nice, typical of a hopped up ale. Overall a nice selection, but would get lost among the other great pale ales.

Apr 21, 2009 Wow. Toffee, toffee, and more toffee. I’m not sure that any big time amber ale fans will find any typical resemblance, but that’s a good thing on my planet. Looks gorgeous, all dressed up a beaut. Aroma and flavor are balanced beautifully with what had to put the continental USA into a barley shortage, and a fine ever present bittering hop. Exeptional, full, satisfying mouthfeel. This by some west coast standards could be called a barleywine (not my standards). Thank You Green Flash. 2009 12oz.
