Tommyknocker Ornery Amber

Brewed by Tommyknocker Brewery
Style: American Dark Lager

An unclear amber beer with a disappearing white head. Both the aroma and flavor are sour with notes of yeast, while the body is thin.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Slightly hazy, amber golden with a dense, off-white head. Lightly sweetish, fruity nose with a somewhat herbal touch. Medium body, a little low in carbonation, some fruits and caramel and a very subdued bitterness. 061007

(12oz bottle, bottled 7/06) Small, quickly dissipating beige head atop crystal clear amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, butterscotch, caramel. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, light lager sourness. Watery light-medium body.

Cask Stillage from the Jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 25/09/2009 Hop aroma. Small white head. Godlen amber coloured smooth on the palate and a little pale with a hint of bitterness in a crisp malt finish.

12oz bottle. Poured a deep and slighty hazy orange color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of vegetables, toasted malts, and some citrus. Tastes of toasted malts, caramel and those damn vegetables. Thinner body.

Bottle... Clear, deep orange lager with a small, fizzy, off-white head. The nose is of caramel or Munich malts with a suggestion of mint. Excellenty balanced flavor, but mostly bland. Maybe a touch beefy with a hint of caramel. Medium-bodied with an almost creamy mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Finishes astringently. Unoffensive, but no better (or different, really) than Killian’s Red.

on tap-pours an offwhite head with a red body. Aroma is grain. Taste is malty grain, creamy, nice and good carbonation.

Bottle. (courtesy of Papsoe) Orange-golden, hazy beer with a beige head. Quite fruity-sweet nose with some caramel-like notes. The flavor is fruity, with orange and some maltyness. Medium body. A quite refreshing beer. (071006)
