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.

I took my eyes away from the Wild Goose Amber for a moment and missed the foam. Had me asking myself, "Where did the head go?" Toffee aroma, medium body and caramel flavor. This amber beer was quickly lost in shuffle....

A hazy orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of flowers and citrus. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of caramel and flower, leading to a lightly bitter end. And the body is thin. Boring.

Mine poured a murky copper/brown with almost no white head. Initial aroma is gentle and hoppy. Taste surprises at first, malty, hoppy and sweet with fruit and caramel notes. Clean, slightly soapy finish. A pleasant surprise.

Draft at the Shockhoe Craft Beer Festival in Richmond, 8/26/06: Good American amber style ... Nice sweet malt in the lager style. Bit of apple, maybe. Good session beer. Retried from a bottle, 3/16/2007: Pretty much the same impression, but down-rated a bit.

Pours clear copper with a well formed head of off-white. Malt dominates the aroma, but leaves a bit of hop coming through. Subdued sweet malt flavor with a pleasing dryness that makes up the finish. Decent.

A pretty good amber if you ask me. A little on the british ale taste of things, but good. Some serious malt characteristic but not in an overpowering kind of way. I enjoyed this Maryland beer, which can’t be said for a few other Frederick Breweing Co. offerings.

12oz bottle pours amber with a short offwhite head that fades quick. Aromas of caramel, and bread and some light grassy hops. Flavor is caramel, orange, some apricot, a touch of raisin even. Definite earthy feel about this one. Medium bodied, low carbonated, with a lingering sweet fruity finish.
