102.7/5.02.71/5.0-19.2English pint, Shaker

Commercial Description:
Beautiful auburn-colored, medium-bodied ale, with a smooth finish. Olmsted Amber is our classic amber ale, made with select two-row English and American pale and caramelized malts, combines with a subtle blend of hops. A well-balanced favorite, named after the legendary Olmsted brothers, the designers of Piedmont Park.

This one pours a dark, clear, slightly orangy amber. Rich aroma is malty, a little yeasty, and has hints of spices. Flavor is malty and quite yeasty with undertones of orange and caramel, and is slightly sweet and spicy. Hard, edgy, jazzy texture leaves a malty, yeasty and slightly sweet finish.

On-tap at the park’s brewpub. Aggressive carbonation, a bit of toasted malt, a moderate amber colour, some hops and a bit of creaminess and lace.

Pours dark amber with a mostly receding tan head. Aroma of toffee, diacetyl, earthy, dusty malt, and wood. Taste is lightly sweet, woody, toffee, and earthy. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with soft carbonation. Nearly every beer I sampled at Park Tavern had a ’house quality’, and this seemed most at home in this beer. I think this beer would be well received by the Brits.

Had on tap at the brewpub in Atlanta. Not a whole lot going on with this one. Light copper appearance, white head. Some brief nuttiness makes an appearance, a trace of caramel and fruity citrusiness. Feels like something is missing. Thinnish mouthfeel.

Nice color not much head. Small hop flavor but nothing stood out. Decent Amber but nothing to talk about.

On draught at the brewpub. A clear amber color with slight white head. Medium-bodied, where hops top the aroma and flavor profiles. A mild caramel malt character. OKAY.

Poured a clear amber. Citrus hop and fruit. Caramel and hop flavor with a bitter finish. While those characteristics should sound good the beer was lacking.
