Warm malty aroma. Standard amber color. Off-white head that is real and laces lightly. Starts with citrus fruit, but not sour. Light bodied. Light to medium brown malt taste. The finish seems to include citrus in the rear of the mouth. The bitter is not enough to balance the sweetness, but it is enough to render the finish pleasant. There is some fresh stone fruit taste. It is really clean and refreshing.

Courtesy of Brewfiend. Copper color with no head. Sweet grain aroma and taste, with the flavor having some earthy hops included. Plain, but honestly not bad.

(12oz bottle) Crystal clear amber body topped by small beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, some orange, light roast, earthy. Taste is moderately sweet, caramel, some brown sugar. Watery light-medium body, very undercarbonated.

Not so bad. Amber colored. Light malt aroma and flavor. A simple session beer. Light palate and very drinkable.

From a 12-oz bottle shared at JK’s Spring Gathering, pours an amber color with an off-white head. The head has a slippery lace and dissolves very fast. Very light carbonation. Aromas of sweet caramel, fruity tropical sweetness and some hops. Flavor is sweet barley malt with grass notes and lime peel. Finish is mild with some acidity and a dry aftertaste. A pretty straightforward Amber, but I would not endorse, nor say it has a taste that is out of this world.

My expectations weren’t all that hight going into this beer. There wasn’t much head on this one, but it was a dark amber color. I did enjoy the malty aroma and taste. All in all a surprisingly good beer all things considered.

Pours a nice dark amber with a minimal off white head. Nice sweet malty aroma. The flavor is a nice mild malty sweet, with a little carbonation and a slight metallic flavor on the finish. All in all not the worst gimmick beer I have had, but not the best.

Draft pint at the Route 66 Microbrewery Bar in ABQ airport, 9/20/06: Dark bark with a tan head. Woody and filling with just a hint of fruity swirl in the finish. Good breakfast beer!
