Commercial Description:
Saranac Adirondack Amber is craft brewed with pure Adirondack water, bottom fermented and fully lagered to carefully balance the sweetness of two-row malt with the delicate bitterness of American Cascade and German Hallertauer hops. Look for a golden amber color and medium body. You’ll discover a distinctive flavorful beer that is deliciously drinkable. Enjoy!

Chewy, sweet malt on the nose with a nip from the hops. Aroma is well balanced. Flavour is restrained and goes a little soapy, with hints of coffee and grapefruit. Has as much body as the scent suggests. Nothing new, but totally refreshing.

This lager poured a nice dark orange colour with a big, bright white, foamy head. A little lacing. To the nose, scents of hopps, citrus, grass and honey. First taste was a little thin but flavourful with a sharp hopp attack on the palate then slide to a nice refreshing finish. Flavours of hopps, honey and flowers were most prodominant. Finish was slightly bitter with the hopps lingering...

Bottle from Saranac mixed six pack (Trail Mix). Pours a golden amber color with a dense beige colored foam head. Decent head retention and lacing along the glass. Aroma is a mixture of caramel malt and floral hops. Flavor is similar with the malt presence up front and some hop bitterness in the finish. Nothing spectacular, but an easy drinking yet flavorful lager.

Serving: 12 oz. bottle. Appearance: Clear copper color with a small, foamy, white head. Okay head retention. Aroma: Malty with light fruit notes, a bit of hops, and a hint of toast. Flavor: A malty body with a decent hop backbone. Caramel, a bit of pine, and toasted malt. Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel and a medium, slightly bitter finish. Overall: I was actually pleasantly surprised by this one as I remembered it being much worse. A decent, sessionable brew.
