Commercial Description:
Amber American Pale Ale brewed in New York. Lots of typical ale characteristics; fruity, dry and hoppy. A quality brew. Formerly known as New Amsterdam New York Ale.

New description: each limited production of our single batch ale has to taste just right because we do not cross blend batches like other brewers. enjoy our ale which is both brewed and dry hopped with hand selected cascade hop flowers.

labeled as single batch pale ale. A decent amber ale, a nice amber body that did not have much of a head. Aroma had big pine notes snf dome caramel notes, but mostly hops. Flavor was good but one dementional hop flavor with some caramel notes. A smooth but very thin finish. A good session beer.

12 oz bottle. Deep hazy copper with a thin white head. Aroma is sweet and slightly worty. Sweet caramel aroma. Flavour is extremely watery though. Light toffee and some non-descript bitterness.

Dark Brown/Orange Coloring with White Ring. Peppermint Aroma. Some Light Fruity and Spices Quality. Can’t Not Picture Peppermint as I Smell and Taste This Brew...Dry Tangy Finish. Your Basic Average Brew.

My bottle has a green label, not gold like in picture. Also has XXX on either side of the "New York Ale" writing. Anyhow. <P> Pours a bit clouded brown with no head. Aroma is malty. Flavor is malt, caramel, no hops evident - bottle age unknown, but based on markings on the bottom, I’d say 2002. Probably drinkable when it’s fresh, but not now... I have another beer waiting for me this evening, the rest of this one is going down the drain. <P>My local store has these in stock for some reason, but it seems that every beer I’ve had (including this one) out of their "bargain bin" has been poured down the drain after rating it. Some bargain, eh?

Dark red color with no head. Aroma and taste are very plain dry malts with a bit of hops on the end. Decent.

the only reason i can think of to like this beer is the name. not that it’s a bad beer, but man, it isn’t a good one either.
