Hazy orangey-amber. Slightly crackery, caramelly nose. Light, caramelly taste. Decent - it is very basic but pretty well made.

12oz bottle-pours a foamy white head and amber color with effervescence. Aroma is malt-caramel. Taste is light medium fruit, malt-caramel. Infected??? They seem to be aware that some product doesn’t go out at optimal/acceptable to the beer drinker condition and are working on it. Seems to affect their bottled product more than kegs. 1.8 *070421- rerate-on tap @HopfestNC-pours a thin off white head and amber color. Aroma is mild medium malt-caramel, secondary English hops. Taste is medium malt-caramel, secondary English hops-bitter. Occasional. OK carbonation. 3.0 I can’t feel right about eliminating the first score, so average=2.4

Pours amber red with a thin white head. Smells fruity with some breaddy notes. Taste is very similar to the red. Maybe the same beer?

12oz bottle. Very fruity maraschino cherry hop nose, along with a sweet, wet malt and bread smell. Flavor is much the same, with the damp, slightly moldy bread note a little more forward, and the cherry flavored hops coming across with more of a cedar wood flavor. Biting and striking, decently bitter for an amber ale, and overall not as bad as the average rating here.

Thanks to Suttree for this one. Pours deep copper with big off-white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, slight hops. Tastes malty, with a slight tart caramel taste, in addition to some nuts. Acquires a green tea overtone as it warms. A solid amber ale.
