Commercial Description:
The Amber is a beer with a great balance of malt and hops, and has an exquisite aroma provided by fresh Cascade hops. It is the perfect beer for someone who wants more flavor than the Golden but isn’t ready for the darkness of a Brown Ale.

The Lure:
Caramel sweetness and peachy fruitiness lay on wet soil. Faint roastiness peers through.

The Festivities:
That treacherous mineral water character is still there. A few citrusy hops precede an earthy, resinous bitterness. Caramel fruitiness is well-balanced with the hoppiness, but that invasive dirtiness always nags.

Transcendence:
Newspaper stains.

Draught. Nose is robust cascade hops which slightly enticing to a fresh brew, light fruits linger in the background. One dimensional but decent aroma. Pours a muddy brown color with decent head retention. Initial taste is lights fruits, malt character and caramel. Mid palate to finish has a good hop character. Palate duration is above average. Decent head retention but average.

CLear amber color with a thin offwhite head. Aroma of toasted malt with sweetness. The flavor is similar, toasted malt and sweetness, it’s decent. The body has a medium thickness with a creamy texture and moderate carbonation. Decent but not enough to be good.
