Jersey Harvest Ale

Formerly brewed at River Horse Brewing Company
Style: Amber Ale
Lambertville, New Jersey USA

Poured a medium hazy orange/amber color with a large off white head. Mixed malty (caramel) and hoppy aroma and tastes. For some reason I wasn’t expecting much from this (it is from Jesey) but was somewhat surprised. Not a bad beer and quite drinkable.

No mentioning of "Harvest" on my bottle Clear amber, good yellowish head, creamy in substance. Cookie, caramel, light-roasted malts, bit of peanut(butter) aroma. Dull-bitterish taste. Not really hoppy, neither dark malts, even when malty sweetnes is very present underneath. Toffee-caramel finish, pineapple flavour, even a bit of Maillard? Bitterish returns in the aftertaste. Medium bodied, smooth. Quite drinkable, nowhere extraordinary.

Pours a light copper with a thin white head, some vegetable notes in the aroma with the patented microbrew malty aroma. Flavor has some ripening vegetable notes with some faint caramel notes. Decent, but fades fast. Thanks to Aurelius for this.

A nice malty-grainy aroma, with an amber cast. Decent label. Flavor has good character - some floral/perfume-y elements, a bit of astringency, toasty malt. Moderately sweet, moderately hopped. Borders on the bock-y sometimes. Medium to medium-heavy mouth with a lingering fruit and perfume aftertaste. Dries out and goes a little crackery in the finish. Good malts.

Toaste malt nose, dark amber color, low creamy head. Caramelly malt with a dainty dry bitter end. Mdeium body and a fairly smooth balance. This surprised us. Dave likes it too.

Quite a suprise as I didn’t expect much. Nice malt nose also smoked. Nice amber color, medium long lasting fair head. Malt grain taste, roasted finish.

Light golden, short head and lacing. Sweet caramel bready malts were the predominant flavor - light hop bitterness in the finish. Body was grainy - like granulated sugar - this added to the seemingly overly sweet tastes.

Thin head which does not last long. Strange aroma. Smells a little musty. Maybe some peat in there also with a bit of hops spiceness. Color is a very nice dark amber. Flavor is a little biscuity with a decent amount of hops and roasted malts. Flavor is a little thin though. Finish is dry and slightly bitter. A decent ale from the good ole' state of New Jersey.
