Pours a bright orange colour with an initially large head that leaves behind quite a bit of lacing. Aroma is semi-nutty, mildly floral hop scent with soft dark fruit notes. Spice, fruit and well integrated hop flavors. A really nice beer overall, my kind of amber for sure. Thanks Louis! Oakes (8108), gone rambling, Cambodia

Sweet caramel malt aroma. Soft low carbonation. Thin, sweet, watery, caramel malt-forward amber ale. Not special but not bad either.
Bottle. Coppery-amber, clear with tight tan head. Boring aroma. Some mild toasted grain and bread. Is sweet but good, juicy, quaffable. Apple and plum sweetness but not cloying and finishes dry. 5-3-6-3-13 daknole (2981), Plantation, Florida, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 25, 2009 Poured at the Jupiter brewfest. Dark amber pour. Malty as hell on the nose with a very malty flavor as well. Roasted malt, caramel and a very slight hop profile peeks out. Fair to good. AllAboutStout (605), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Nov 16, 2008 Pours a very dark amber in color. Pretty big decent bubbly white head. Smell is malty and slightly ’’off’’ hops. Beer seems to be stale or old, but the bottle’s best by date is still a ways off.
Taste is uninviting and off putting. Some soapy notes as well. Not good. nqualls (1428), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
