Lancaster Amber Ale

Brewed by Lancaster Brewing Co.
Style: Amber Ale
Lancaster, Pennsylvania USA

Pours more on the oranger side of red. Nice malty aroma with some hops present. Some sweet malt flavor with a small hop kick in the finish.

Sample at the brewpub. Medium amber, tinge of red...malty, fruity aroma, extremely smooth palate...flowers & honey, nice maltiness, just a hint of hops at the end. Not bad.

Deep red-copper color. Strong malty nose. British malt characteristics immediately apparent in nose. Malty flavor light at beginning, rising as swallow finishes. Fresh floral scent. mild lacing. Bitterness appears in mid swallow, and dissipates quickly. Deep tart finish lasts into aftertaste.

Very similar to the 4 grain, except more hop presence is noticed. Color is pale amber with a decent white/beige head. Smooth beer.

Aka Red Rose Amber. Faint aroma of brewed iced tea (Red Rose?). Looked like a brewed ice tea. Medium body, medium carb. Pleasing fizziness. Hoppy (not as much as brown ale) and malty, with some acidic bitterness. Smooth nutty finish. Almost a weaker version of the brown ale.

Microbrew for the masses...not bad, but nothing to rave about here. Typical amber - smooth, bubbly and kind of bland.
