Oct 4, 2005 Bright amber with a white head. Mild, sweet malts balance with some hops for a good aroma. Not much malt flavor, but lots of piney, floral hops with some carmel notes in there as well. Struck me as more of a pale ale. Good bitter finish.

Sep 2, 2005 12 oz bottle. Slightly hazy pale amber beer, no head. A nice fruity yeast aroma combinded with caramel malt, a touch of toast. Flavour is similar, caramel/toffee sweetness, apple/berry fruit. Light bitterness. I’d like some aroma hops, but this is quite good.

Aug 23, 2005 Bottle: Courtesy of bu11zeye via trade. Almost no aroma to speak of, maybe the slightest hint of caramel and hops, but it may just be a case of searching for something. Pours a transparent amber with an insignificant white head. Sweet up front which goes from sugary to more of a caramel in the finish with a touch of hops and some grassiness. Easy drinking and smooth, but nothing spectacular. Better than a lot of ambers, but due to the weak aroma, won’t show up in the final score

Aug 15, 2005 Im suprised at how golden the color is and how hoppy the aroma and taste are. It tastes like an IPA to me. I was well into the night (a few beverages deep) but I couldn’t get much past the hops. A little malt in there with some spicy notes and a rather dry finish, but suprisingly hoppy.

Aug 7, 2005 Shows a lightly hazy, full copper color when held up to the light, otherwise it is a deep reddish copper color. The head is thin and a light tan color. The aroma is lightly spiced with hops and has hints of malt in it with notes of toasted biscuits and some caramel. The taste is dry at first but then picks up light sweetness as a solid toffee like maltiness kicks in. The is a low level of spicy hop notes here, as well as a lightly bitter finish. The hops give it flavor hints of lemon, and an herbal woody character. The malt in this seems a bit tired, perhaps some notes of stale caramel. This is actually not a bad beer, it is quite a bit more flavorful and complex than I was expecting, though it is still just an American Amber Ale.
