Commercial Description:
Classic English-style amber ale with a full, malty body and a robust hop flourish. Its rich copper color comes from British Crystal and Chocolate malts. The round maltiness is perfectly balanced with a spicy blend of Williamette, Hallertauer, Tettnang, and Cascade hops.

Bottle. Pours a clear orangish brown, very little head. Aroma is full of caramel, biscuit, and malt....pretty strong for a lighter beer. Flavor is dominated by caramel maltiness; some biscuity/bready character. Some sweetness in the front. Smooth bitterness to balance. Mouthfeel is a little flat....carbonation may be a tad under, or this bottle may not be fresh. Overall, this is a pretty decent beer....not stellar, but well made and at least it has some character in a style that it dominated by a lot of tasteless beers.

Dark orange body with a thin white head. Aroma was a bit sweet and orangey. Flavor is okay - a bit of hops, a bit of malt, a bit of orangey flavor.

12 ounce bottle served in standard pint glass: Pours a clean medium amber hue topped by a fading fizzy head and some lacing. The aroma has notes of toffee and caramelized malting, prune, aromatic hops, and a hint of earthy esters. The taste is a straight forward blend of sweet malt and quickly fading grassy hops. A touch of spice is found on the aftertaste but showed little depth. The mouth feel is moderately creamy but seems to get a bit boring after awhile, is dryer on the finish that expected. Okay, a passable brew, you could do worse.

Orange gold body, light white head. Malty aroma, mollasses is also present. Thin taste, light hops and malts, nothing too outstanding. Bland ending, no bite.

Pours a nice hazy brownish orange. Aromas of caramel, hint of fruit and hops. Nice creamy malt taste with a nice hop bitterness.

Slightly hazy bright reddish amber. Creamy off-white head. Very sweet aroma… kool-aid or sweet alcohol drink. Some caramel. Taste is very sweet too… kind of the same sweetness as the IPA, just tweaked a bit. Some stale caramel. The beers from this brewery are very sweet, and the sweetness flavors makes them overlap a bit.
