Not much to say about this beer.... picture the most typical amber ale imaginable and this might be what you get. Not bad, but nothing I will seek out again.

Draft. Amber beer with a whitsh head. Light malt aroma. Malt, caramel, and light spice flavor. Medium bodied. Noticeable hops makes gives it a little something. Spice, malt, and light pine lingers.

Pours a nice copper/orange with a fluffy white head that disappears slowly... Initial aroma of caramel malts, then more sweetness but not in the bad way, and a nice touch of subtle spice... Not very hoppy in the west coast way, but rather a wee bit spicy without the expected sweetness... Medium bodied with lingering sweetness, the finish is where the sweetness hits as it lingers a bit longer than anything else on my palate, and a touch dry in the finish... Easy drinking, quite tasty nice nice beer...

Bottle - This is the drink I was looking for last night. Big sweet malty backbone, highlighted by rich caramel, toasted bread, and bits of earthy nuttiness. Some light fruit accents and a great floral hop component with very light pine and moderate citrus. A wonderful surprise to find this sitting in the back of my fridge - completely forgot it was there.

Obtained as an extra trade. Pours orange, with a thick white head. Aroma is loaded with grains. Taste has a thick mouthfeel with lots of malts and caramel. Light chocolate. Really awesome taste, with pronounced roasted - cookie - nutty mouthfeel that is just amazing and make this one a very enjoyable beer. This one came up as a big surprise and the story behind the bottle cap and the whole beer is funny as well.

Bottle... Poured deep amber with a good size head. Leafy hops and malt on the nose. Pretty decent for an amber, a nice hop profile and a well rounded malt balance that lends to a roasted finish.

There is a Weed, CA? Awesome. On tap at Green Dragon in Portland. Dark amber. Really nice session beer with solid bitterness and toasted malts.

12 oz bottle. Pours amber with a think creamy head. Bold malty aroma with undertones of floral notes. Rich malty caramel flavor followed by some nuttiness. Slight bitterness in the finish. Decent amber.
