Jul 20, 2006 Updated: Oct 15, 2006Great start with a nice hop-filled aroma, but the taste let me down somewhat. Good for an amber, but pretty bland you’re hoping for a mega-hop brew. Tip: dump this one straight to the back of your mouth to maximize hop-taste. Re-rate 9/9/06: I may have been a bit harsh before, as the taste seems better than I remembered. Re-rate: This really is alot better than I initially rated it. I poured it and left it for over 30 minutes and the taste was much better. I can now say that this is reallly good.

Jul 19, 2006 Olney Beer & Fine Wine tasting. Clear, reds, golden; light foam. Big sweet, hoppy nose; very enticing. Light hops on the front of the tongue, with bitterness and malts dominant at the sides; roast malt backbone makes itself known. Light finish. Terribly drinkable, and a nice alternative to those long summer months without Nugget Nectar.

Jul 11, 2006 Bottle courtesy of Thaichile. Pours a clear amber with a large off-white head. Nice aroma of citrus & funky hops and sweet malt -- smells great! Slightly sweet hoppy flavour with a nice bitter finish. Medium bodied. Wow, this is pretty good stuff, especially for an Amber Ale.

Jul 1, 2006 via trade with jasonmech77 - Pours a clear deep amber color with a nice off white head. Light lacing and good carbonation. Lots of floral and citrus hop aroma. Flavor has that caramel sweetness to it. Smooth but leaves a slight malt aftertaste. Medium body. A good beer. Thanks Jason.

Jun 26, 2006 Bottle. Pours clear amber with cream colored head. Aroma is citrus and floral much like an IPA. Flavor is malty smooth with a slight hops kick; floral and lemon. I don’t think I’d call this an amber ale.
