Commercial Description:
A creamy, flavorful Amber that's smooth and easy to drink. Drop Top is fermented by an American Ale yeast to produce beer with a clean flavor and fruity aroma. The velvet texture is from the use of Honey malt and a touch of milk sugar. The Magnum bittering hops provide soft bitterness, while Simcoe, a newly developed hop variety, adds unique hop flavor and aroma.

Aroma - Carmel, alcohol,butterscotch Appearance - amber,light white head,clear Flavor- Medium sweetness,light bitterness Palate - Medium body, thin texture, medium carbonation, abrupt finish Overall - Fairly enjoyable, especially the aroma. The flavor and palate were promising but the abruptness of the experience was a bit disappointing. Still, quite drinkable and a good accompanienment to dinner.

12oz bottle into a pint glass. Pours very light amber, almost orange, very clear and with a small white head that goes away fast. Aroma is a bit of malt with honey and light flowers. The flavor is a hint of malt followed by a lot of sweet, sugar, and honey and just a hint of hop bitterness on the finish. It is on the creamy side, and even with its high carbonation, the beer still tends to stick and annoy a bit.

Bottle. Pours clear amber body no head. Aroma is smooth malt. The taste is essentially flavorless malt. BORING.

Pours a caramel color. Aroma of sweetness particularly caramel and butterscotch. Slight taste hints of butterscotch and caramel throughout. A very refreshing and drinkable beer.
