7.6
Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5

Poured into an English pint glass, the appearance was a mostly dark amber color with a nice light finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated fairly quick. Stringy foamy lace slides into the beer, some rings.
The aroma blends fairly well between maple syrup some grassy hops and roasted nuts. Subtle caramel/toffee malts ever so slightly in the background.
The flavor, once again, melds the maple syrup to the hops and the nutty to roasty malt backbone. Fairly well blended aftertaste between syrup, hops and malts in the aftertaste. Abrupt semi-nutty to maple sweet sort of finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Good carbonation. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, good for an amber ale and kudos to Frost for taking a style not so much loved anymore and brewing it to their own creative standards.
