Pours a clear amber color with no head. Aroma of malts and floral hops. Not distinct. On the palate, malts with a touch of hops. For the style, a nice drinking beer.

12oz from Immy - thanks, Tim! Guess I didn’t know this was a dark lager, as the pour was far darker than I expected, a deep copper in fact. Modest carbonation, thin head. Smell is nicely malt, almost like a bock of some sort. The mouthfeel is thinnish, the finish a bit meh. But the flavors are pleasantly sweet, with enough hops to keep it somewhat refreshing.

Draft at Craft. Dark straw pour, with fruity hopcit in the nose, and pale malty hopcit, apricot, and slightly tart honey in the flavor. Solid lager.

Saw this in the store and remembered walking past the brewery in Durango, CO the last time I was out there. Was a little worried what I was getting into with things that the label states. But I was very impressed with this Amber Lager, and have bought it several times since first trying it.

Piney floral hops in aroma. It was more aggressively hopped than expected but that’s good! Golden copper in color with a malty hoppy flavor. Overall, this is pretty darn good. I was a little skeptical of their claim to be the "best" but I’m hooked now.

Has an excellent aroma right-away. Good head. Good color and CO2. A very tasteful/delicious beer. A fine beer and will be going on my good list.

The look is clear, copper in color, and has a beige head. The smell is corn, malts, cereal, grains, and cardboard. The taste is sweet, corny, flowery, grains, and malts.
