Pours deep mohogany w/ a medium semi creamy froth. Aroma of fresh pine and grapefruit. Medium nectar w/ ample residual effers. Flavors are crisp and hop forward w/ lime rind and a brisk bittered finish. Overall: not what I like in an amber although it’s a good brew. Low malt w/ big hops. More like a amber colored IPA.

Poured amber with a creamy head. Pleasant hoppy aroma. Flavor has sweet malt, but mostly grapefruit hops, a little pine. Very nice.

"Poured a dark amber to lighter brown. Big head solid lacing. Aroma was of hops and caramel malts. Flavor was much the same. Was very well balanced. "

Lots of hop bitterness for an amber ale, but still has the malt typical of an amber. Pretty dark amber color. Label is easy to remember!

12oz bottle poured a clear amber red color with a nice size head and good lacing. Aromas of sweet caramel malts and citrus hops. Has a good balance with a firm bitterness. Has a dry hoppy finish with the alcohol out of the picture.

Decent sized off-white head of fine bubbles. Decent carbonation. Nice hoppy aroma. Some roasted malts along with a bit of spruce. Dark brownish amber in color. Dry and pretty bitter flavor. Some roasted malts with a little grittiness. Bitterness a little on the harsh side. Finish is dry and bitter with a little sweetness and finishes up pretty clean. Decent but nothing special.

(Bottle at OT, Stockhom) Pours a bit hazy red amber with a small white head. Smells pine and citrus hops. Malty. Some vanilla. Tastes malt with pine hops. Pineapple. Like a classic american pale ale, but amber. Nothing special but good. Great bottle design.

Pours amber with a nice red tint to it. Medium to thin light brown head. Nice and hoppy aroma for an amber ale. Initial taste is of the citrus hops followed by a good malt balance. A little more caramel taste is present as it warms. The is an easy drinking beer, very crisp and clean finish. Light to medium body. Not your typical amber, but I like it.
