Slighty hazy dark amber colour. Slight fruity hops overtop of a largely caramel malt base. Flavour is caramel, bland. Just another amber. Sigh.

Sampled draught at Liberator Brewing, Troutdale
Amber color, tan head, nice lacing. Nose of diacetyl & floral hops, fairly malty & buttery though. The flavor is malty with an offset bitter note & some more diacetyl. The finish lingers but creamy & malty. Eh.

As Weed Ales Amber (at NorCal Brewers Raley Field Festival). Malty aroma; dark amber color; not much head. Medium mouthfeel; darkish malt flavor. A bit of hop in the finish. Drinks well.

Received a 12-oz bottle via ABA Beer Swap. Pours a clear reddish brown amber brew with a thick beige head that slowly dissipates and leaves behind some spotty lacing. Aroma of citrus, roasted caramel malt, and some fruit. Taste is slightly bitter, medium bodied, with flavors of citrus, roasted dark malt, ice tea and some tobacco. Finish is semi-dry, mild bitterness with a lingering ice tea aftertaste.

Thanks to Skyview! Brown color with a medium head. Grassy hop aroma. Dry malt flavor and a fairly grainy finish. Pretty decent Amber Ale.

Bottle poured a clear dark amber with a lingering ring of amber foam. Aromas of carmel, light earthiness and a hint of fruittiness. Palate was light to medium bodied and crisp. Flavors of toffee, carmel and light earthiness with a smooth lingering lightly bitter malty finish.
