Commercial Description:
Troegs HopBack Amber gets its unique name and taste from the HopBack Vessel in our brewhouse. Packed full of whole flower hops, each batch circulates through the vessel, creating a fresh hoppy aroma, spicy taste and rich caramel note that defines this signature amber ale.

Amber color with white head. Nice hoppy aroma. Caramel malt taste with nice bitter Hop taste.

Purchased at Perfect Pour - Dark shiny copper, creamy off white head. Toffee peach aromas ride light toasty pine notes. Soft hoppy flavor balances on a rich caramel backbone. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, lightly bittersweet finish. 6% ABV makes this a decent cross-over session ale in my book...

Love this brew. Pours amber in color with a thin white head. Aroma is amazing, smells of sweet malt and sugary fruit. Taste is very fruity and hoppy with nice carbonation. Crisp finish. Makes a nice session beer.

Bottle: pours a dark brown with a little bit of head, aroma of hops and maybe a little caramel, taste is hoppy, spicy, caramel. This is more my type of a session beer - has some hops coming through but not overpowering and a reasonable ABV.

Loved it! Nice hoppy kick, but well balanced with the rest of the beer. Haven’t had a Troegs yet that I didn’t love.

So so flavor. It was interesting that the hops were present in smell, but the beer wasn’t bitter. I would purchase this one again

Bottle. Pours a dark amber color with minimal off-white head. Citrus aroma is a preview to the flavor of hops that comes across the tongue with spiciness. Not overpowering, and very sessionable.
