Oct 12, 2009 Pours medium amber with a good head. Aroma is fresh floral hops. Body is medium with a good amount of carbonation. Flavor is exceptional with a lot of hops flavor without the harsh bitter bite. The malt is in the background but definitely noticeable with a nice roasty, nutty characteristic. I dry finish completes this excellent beer.

Oct 10, 2009 12 oz bottle. This is an amber? It tastes like no other amber I’ve ever had. That’s a compliment. When I first heard that Stone created an amber ale, I couldn’t believe it. It didn’t seem like something this hop-obsessed brewery would do. Then I tasted it. It has Stone written all over it. Most ambers are too malty for my taste. This beer is balanced nicely with plenty of hops. Smells of sweet malt, a little musty. Pours brownish amber, small head, good lacing. Tastes of raisins. The label says it all: there’s more character in this 4.4% alcohol beer than any other beer I can think of in this range. Well done, Stone.

Oct 9, 2009 This deep amber ale has rich & roasty malt flavors, a big hoppy character, citrus overtones (courtesy of the hops and our special brewers yeast) and modest alcohol.

Oct 6, 2009 an amazingly potent amber ale, one with a heavier dose of hops and malts than i expected. definitely one to try if you are a fan of amber ales.

Oct 3, 2009 pours an opaque ruby/brown color with a mediium tan head...dissipates quickly but returns nicely with agitation. very subtle refrshing aroma with hints of grassy and spicy hope..smells like fresh hop flowers. roasty and oaky maltiness rounded out with spiciness and hints of citrus. creamy and thick mouthfeel with lots of bubbly action...finish dries out quickly and lingers for a bit...i really like this session beer!!

Oct 2, 2009 Pours amber color with just a little white head. Has a hoppy malty smell to it. A slight citrus taste with a tiny bitter finish. Just an okay beer for Stone
