Body is watery and tasteless with some light sweet malts and burnt hops in there. Eh, not a fan of this one. maniac (2628), Richmond, Virginia, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 5, 2008 Pours a medium amber with a filmy white head that leaves lacing. Aroma is sweet with some caramel, light pine and some butterscotch. Flavor is medium sweet with a good deal of caramel and some nice bitterness on the back end. Medium bodied, creamy mouthfeel. mustangjoe (172), redondo beach, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 24, 2008 Better to me than most Amber Ales I have tried. A little more hop aroma and flavor than most ambers I have tried. A quite pleasant ale. LilBeerDoctor (1526), East Setauket, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 7, 2008 Bottle. Pours a light amber with a small white head. Aroma of mainly floral hops. Flavor of floral hops, wheat, sweet malt. A little hoppy for an amber ale (to me) and it is very similar to a pale ale. Nevertheless, it is very balanced and so smooth to drink, an excellent session beer. Very underrated- a very enjoyable beer. Would definitely pick up again. fredandboboflo (1417), East Setauket, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 7, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of floral hops, semi-sweet, (almost tropical) fruity malt. Flavor fruity, but not sweet. Very refreshing and full bodied, at least for the style. All the fruitiness remained nice and dry. I feel this could compete with very well respected pale ales...and kick their asses. unclemike (833), Ft. Riley, Kansas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 28, 2008 Cloudy amber pour with a quickly fading off-white head. Sweet caramel, malty and a touch hoppy aroma. Same in the flavor department. Good body thickness, flavors start good but there is something missing in the middle. Flavors fade into a sourish finish with a pronounced hoppy bite. Not a fan of the style but it is pretty good nonetheless.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Apr 12, 2008 12oz bottle. Amber brown with medium white head which disappeared quickly and very little lacing. Faint caramel aroma. You can definitlely taste the caramel malts, but it is rather thin bodied. Not much to the finish, a little hops but nothing that lingers. OK, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to try again.
