Commercial Description:
Red Rock's #1 seller, Amber Ale, falls into the category of a Northwest Style Pale Ale. Amber Ale gets its name for it's amber coloring and is medium in body with medium Carmel character. Our Amber Ale has is brewed from copious amounts of Cascade Hops which give the brew its bitterness alongside a medium malty character. With noticeable esther character and aroma, we recommend it with one of our delicious entrees or mouth- watering sandwiches!

Not sure why this one is gettin’ the beat down...nice hoppy amber with a frothy eggshell head that left spider-web lacing. Aroma is bright citrus and honey. Flavor isn’t aggressive but pleasant...and the mouthfeel is moderate and highly drinkable. No off-qualities. Really enjoyed this one.

Pours medium amber with off-white head, on draft at the brewpub itself. Nose is rather light with a soft caramel candyish component. Caramel & light malt carry through on the palate, with an overall watery body and easy drinking quality. Comes across as one of those Michelob Amberbocks but even lighter, and more fruity/sweet.

On tap a few weeks back at the brewpub in SLC. Pretty darn nice for the style. Color was a reddish/amber. Nice looking. Aroma of caramel and fruit. Flavor was basically the same; the Cascades were present a bit, adding some depth. Solid for the style.

On tap at the brewpub in SLC. Pours a clear amber color with tiny white head. A light aroma is caramel malts. The flavor was pretty much dominated by light caramel malts, some light hops and a watery and clear body. Decent.

Taster – Red Rocks Brewing Co. – Salt Lake City, UT – Nice amber ale with some decent uses of malt. The flavor was pretty right on. Felt light but it was very tasty. I would drink this all day if I could.

Poured from tap a dark copper color with a persistent white head. The nose was citrusy with light malts beneth. The taste starts with notes of caramel and a damn nice citrus hop bite. The hop bitterness dominates, since malt sweetness is fairly low in the end. As far as ambers go this is quite bitter; it tastes more like a pale. The finish was dry and refreshingly bitter. One of the hoppies ambers I’ve ever had. Even though the balance is a little off, I found this very refreshing and extremly drinkable.

Amber colour with an off-white head. Very light citrus aroma, a bit of bready/biscuity malt and a soft caramel sweetness. A fairly low hop note but there are enough in here to balance it off. Moderate bitterness, light diacetyl (seems to be common in many of their beers) and a fairly slick texture.
