Commercial Description:
This full bodied amber ale is modeled after the "altbiers" of Dusseldorf, Germany. Our top fermenting yeast and cold finishing temperature result in a complex, yet clean, full flavor.

Bottle. Clear brownish orange, thick tan head and nice head retention. Peppery fruity aroma. Malty fruity flavors. Moderate bitterness. Medium body. Hoppy finish. Decent drinking brew. Bottled on 5/10/05.

Pours a med. amber with a lite white head. Nose of mild caramel with a firm maltiness. Flavors are slightly earthy and grassy, but with a caramelly sweetness. Body is a little lite for the style and the finish is not dry enough. Otherwise, this is a really smooth beer that is a hell of a lot better than most of the ambers made in America.

Not as good as DoubleBag. Poured a copper/orange color with little head. Weak aroma. Crisp malty flavor. Nice hopped background. Not much to this beer. Decent

05.25.05 12oz bottle. Glistening, coppery brown with thick and fluffy off-white head. Mild aromas of cooked, husky grains, crusty, a touch salty. Flavor is very mild and a bit bland with tons of bitterness, tingly fizz. Reminds of salted stale pretzels, but abrupt and bitter. Really need some body, less eff.

Pours bright copper an still with a creamy ivory head. not much lace to speak of. Smells quite hoppy with hints of spice and faint sour apple. Taste is bitter. Bitter throughout for various reasons. Spicy malt flavors in there somewhere. Not sure of how to describe this but it tastes "grainy", like unmalted barley. Hoppy finish and aftertaste. This beer is crisp and easy to drink. Would make a nice session brew during a ski vacation. Solid.

On tap in Maynard, MA. Poured a nice bubbly amber, decent head for a bar pour. God forbid you get a head on your beer in a bar. Anyway, thought this was a very refreshing beer - some citrus flavor to it and very palatable.

Brewtopia ’05. Copper color, no nose. Tasted sweet/malt. Nothing going on here.

Copper color out of the bottle with a generous foamy off white head. Not much of a nose, but what there was had a thin, grainy quality to it. The initial taste was some fruity sweetness followed by an unidentified bitterness in the finish. This bottle seemed to have an off acidity to it. Not a great beer.
