10/06/2008: Redhook Late Harvest Autumn Ale has a vibrant golden amber color (like copper) with a full, dense, ivory-colored head. There is good lacing and an adequate level of carbonation. The aroma is a bit thin with only a marginal amount of caramelly maltiness. The flavor is lightly malty with some brown sugar and a light amount of citrusy hops. There is also a lightly toastiness to it as well that reminds me of dried leaves in the Fall and a faint pineapple-like essence. The finish is slighty dry. This beer has a solid mouthfull and a medium-body. It is very smooth and really does fit the season nicely. This Amber Ale is definitely better than average and is even fairly sessionable. However, I would have liked more of the German Smoked Malt supposedly in the recipe to come through in the delivery...

12 fl. oz. bottle (5.9% Alc. by Vol.; Bottled 082708) from Bigg’s Hypermarket in Harrison, Ohio. Rating #260 for this beer...

Clear reddish copper color with a finger of puffy creamy off white head. Slightly metallic amber malt aromas. Slight piney hoppiness and caramel with a cool metallic feel and a bit of nuttiness with enough hops to balance.

Poured from bottle . Gas and malt in aroma. Clear amber, thin tan head. Roasted malt flavor comes through, hops somewhat evident in aftertaste. Good finish. A good beer that could be better.

From a bottle at KSBF ’08. Amber body with a small head. Nose of spicy noble hops. Bready spicy flavor that I remember being unpleasant but I didn’t write down why. The only beer I dumped all day.

Bottle from BevMo. Bright reddish amber color upon pouring. Somewhat sweet malty aroma. A little hop character as well. Crisp malty flavor with a decent balance of hops. Decent amber.

Poured an orange-amber color, looks like the fall. Had a small white head. Clean, fresh aroma of hops, some malts, and wheat. Distinctl hop flavor with more of a body than I expected and having warming notes. An amber with a twist.
