This is your average run of the mill bland amber ale. Nothing that truly distinguishes it from any other. Copper in colour with a thin tad head. Aroma is caramel and acid. Flavour is metallic in nature with a bitter finish. Very similar to a Rickard's Red in Canada...amber swill if you will.

Sparkling, light amber color with a soapy, thin head and minimal lacing. Fruity esters in the aroma with banana and licorice notes. Airy and lively on the palate that finishes dry with a sweet bite. An underlying earthiness brings about flavors of banana, lemon, and bubblegum. Some caramel is noticed in the aftertaste. I like what the Belgian yeast has done with this amber ale, good touch.

12 oz bottle. Pours a murky tea color with a fizzy off white head that quickly recedes to a thin film.
The aroma is subdued - bready caramel malts, a little grassy hops and some slightly sour fruitiness.
The flavor is caramel malts, maple, a little chocolate, some yeast and a little fruit zing at the end. The mouthfeel is medium with some slightly sharp carbonation.
Overall, an enjoyable amber. It's different and more flavorful than most ambers. -

Orange brown color. Small lifeless head. Aroma is fruity and sweet. A medium bodied amber ale. Malts are fruity and sweet. Hops are a touch spicy and a little citrusy. A touch of yeast and spices in this one, so there is a touch of Belgian flavor, but itís still a fairly typical amber ale. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

On tap at the brewpub. Slightly cloudy light orange color. Frothy thick head with an aroma of fresh wheat and some oranges. The taste is dark bread and some orange peel, alomost like a beefy APA. Interesting twist on an amber ale.
