Great beer for all occasions! A lot of flavors make this beer delicious. I would definitely classify this as an upscale amber ale.

Growler thanks to ditmier! Pours slightly hazy deep amber with a tall, lasting off-white head. Fruity, juicy malt aroma with citrus hops. Sweet malts balanced nicely with the hop bitterness. Complex flavor profile with a smooth full body. Great beer, worth seeking out.

Great Amber Ale!!! Pours a rich amber color. Fruity and nutty aroma, but minimal fruit and nut in its taste, which I enjoy. Very drinkable beer, all the tastes blend together wonderfully with a mild hops aftertaste. Highly recommend this beer!!

On tap at Piecora’s pizzeria. Pours a cloudy orange amber with minimal head. Not getting a lot from the nose- what is there is fruity hops. Tastes pretty good though. Very malty and nutty at first with some raisin-like fruit in there. Hops come through eventually and the finish is surprisingly long.

On tap at some faceless bowling alley in washington. Body was hazy honey not much head due to pour but good lacing evident. Nose is sweet honey, fresh leafy citric hop - real nice. Taste was caramel malt, fruity watermelon slightly, orange, citric hops, toffee, bitter finish. Only slightly carbonated. Decent session beer.
