Nov 19, 2009 Golden amber color with a frothy head. Aroma of caramel and hey with a citrus hop aspect. Flavor has the caramel sweetness of the aroma with a sour citrus component that stays with the finish.

Oct 29, 2009 Deep amber pour with a very thin off-white head. Light, sweet aroma of biscuits and caramel. Medium-thin palate with some fizzy carbonation. Fairly sweet flavor of biscuits and honey. There is a decent hop bite towards the end. This is an okay brew but not very exciting.

Oct 19, 2009 Serving: 12 oz. bottle.
Appearance: Clear amber color with a small, foamy,off-white head. Poor head retention and minor specks of lacing left behind.
Aroma: Malty nose with biscuit and cracker notes. Very light.
Flavor: Caramel malt, biscuit notes, and a light back bitterness. Kind of lacks flavor in my mind.
Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium, slightly dry mouthfeel and a medium finish.
Overall: This one really didn’t impress me.

Oct 18, 2009 Deep coppery amber with little head. Very low carbonation - maybe a problem wtih the six pack I bought? Nice aroma dominated by malt. Sweet flavor, not much in the finsih. With the low level of carbonation, not great in the palat dept. OK but not great - I may try again to see if this sample was flat or something.

Oct 4, 2009 Had this bottle at a restaurant. Pours cloudy amber with a decent size head. Aroma of caramel malt. There is actually a fair amount of hops used to balance the malt, and I thought it was a decent amber.

Sep 15, 2009 Awkward mouth feel, alright taste, ugly pour. Would expect more from a brewer in Hopland.

Sep 13, 2009 Tap @ Our House, Allston, MA. Amber body with white head. Nice body with a sweet, honey like malt flavor. Hops balance out the beer. Solid.

Sep 5, 2009 12oz bottle. Amber color. Nice tall white head. Nice lace. Aroma of pale and caramel malts. Aroma of fresh biscuits. Some light hop florals. Flavor is a nice cara malt. More biscuit. Smooth and creamy texture. A lot better than I thought it’d be. A decent hop bitterness finish. Simple and basic which makes for a really good Amber.
