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 amber with a beige head. Aroma has caramel, toast, and light floral hops. Medium body. Flavor is rather light, with caramel malt and floral hops. Not bad.

Bottle: Poured an amber color with a fluffly white head. Too much carbonation as it look me 10 minutes or more to pour the whole thing into a glass. The aroma was faint, sweet malts and hops. The flavor was just OK. I didn’t like the aftertaste which kind of tasted metallic. Overall, not a fan of this one.

12oz bottle. The pour is a nice amber-red color with a thin head of white cream. Some nice lacing as well. The aroma has a nice toasty sweet character that I like. The flavor is quite nice too. I can taste some of the hop varieties, although they are subtle. I’m pleasantly surprised by this unassuming little beer.

This poured a dark amber color into a pilsner glass. A fluffy, inch tall white head that left pretty good lacing on the glass all the way down. Not a real strong aroma. Some malt, some hops, but nothing that really stood out. Delicious, malty flavor with enough hops to balance. Very creamy, with the maltiness the primary flavor. Mouthfeel was creamy with just a slight carbonation. It was extremely smooth. Very drinkable beer. Before I knew it, I had already finished half the glass and was looking for more. I could drink these all day long.

Honey aroma with some crystal malts on the nose. Pours a light amber. Sweet malts with a slight hoppy flavor. There’s a cereal grain aftertaste. Not much here.

Bottle. Poured a clear amber/copper with a cream colored frothy head. Toffee, praline, lace cookie aroma. Caramel to toffee malt flavor with an earthy hop backing and a slightly spicy character. Medium to full bodied but a bit overcarbonated. Decent enough take on an English pub-style session, but nothing remarkable.

Bottle via the wife on her many and far flung travels. Not muchin the way of nose here, some Corny grain or wet cardboard. Body is light. Looks quite nice in the glass as the gold shimmers in the sunlight. A nice chainsaw repair beer. Head is ephemeral and fizzy. Went down quick.
