Nice amber hue with an off-white head of about one inch. Some lacing. Good floral hop aroma.
Taste is sweet malts with just a kiss of Cascade hops. Not overly sweet like many of this style. A little watery but it is an Amber. Probably the most user-friendly Amber Ale on the market. Would be a nice transition beer for the macro crowd. Very nice.

Dec 27, 2008 Pale ammer. Lasting head. Aroma of citris and pine. Flavor of citris and earth.
Light bitter finish. Tastes more like a Pale Ale due to the hops.

Nov 16, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours amber with fluffy ecrue head. The aroma is grapefruit, caramel, iced tea, and some sweetish earthiness. The flavor is green wood and grapefruit, followed by a dusty caramel. Prickly citrus and some honey notes. Gets earthy toward finish. leaves chalky caramel aftertaste.

Oct 31, 2008 Pours a nice cloudy dark amber color. Aroma consists of floral and pine notes. Clean bitter hoppy taste with a hint of citrus as it finishes. Overall I think this is a decent amber ale. Smooth and easy drinking with some decent complexiy to boot...
