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 sampled. Pours copper with an average size light tan head. Aroma of toffee, caramel, and hops. The flavor is sweet upfront, caramel, toffee, and a slight bitter finish. Ok brew.

Bottle, best before 14907. Mostly clear copper color, with small head that almost lasts. Aroma is brown sugar, molasses, and toasted nuts with slight alcohol. Flavor is toasted pecan, barley and dryish malt. Some slight hop bittering and tingle at the end. Palate is smooth, dryish and light-medium bodied. Nice.

Very nice looking - burnt sienna, if I remember my crayolas correctly ;-> Taste is butterscotch and toffee, palate is super malty. A bit of hops just to balance the sweets.

Made my own Wild Goose variety pack while visiting my daughter at WVU. Bottle. Aroma thick malty nose. Pour was an darkened amber. Flavor was molasses and toasted malts mixed nicely together. Palate was medium bodied with a nice even finish. Overall a good beer to have around tasty and not overkill on the buds.

12 oz bottle via Decaturstevo (thanks!). This one is a dark amber with an average size beige head. Nose is earthy hops and toasted grains. Tastes just like it smells with a little honey flavor and a bit of citrus in the finish. Very nicely balanced. Carbonation is medium as is the body. Goes down smooth and easy, i could easily enjoy a few of these.

Copper body with a rocky tan head. A story of big sweet cereal malts, caramel, apple, plum, walnuts, hints of syrup. The hops are mild, a bit spicy on the finish, earthy, and never make the grade entrance. Not an exciting beer at any point but never a looser either... it’s mediocrity for the Amber Ale.

This was another ale consumed at the Capital Ale House. The head was thin and the color a deep amber. The malty body overpowered the hops. I want to try more from brewery that is based in Maryland area.

In the bottle at Mile Square in Hoboken. I have no idea why this beer got a 51 on here. The only reason i can come up with is that it is an amber that isn’t too hoppy. Try it if you can find it, it is too good to pass up.
