Not going to win any awards, but a clean amber ale that could easily be confused with an English bitter, easy to drink.

Pour is of course an amber with a average white head. Aroma is of sweet caramel malts and not much else. Flavor is again more sweet malts with a touch of toffee but watery over all. Nothing great but an ok amber.

Bottle. Mild malty aroma. Cloudy amber colour. Small tan head. The flavour is malty like the flavour. Mild bitterness. Slightly spicy. Does not stand out much, but nice and well-balanced.

From my beer club. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured an orange-amber color with a medium sized orange-white head that lingered and produced incredible lacing. The aroma was sour, bitter and had faint fruits and toasted hazelnut. The flavor was dryish and roasty with light hazelnut and caramel. The finish was long, dry, bitter and slightly roasty. Medium body. Ok.

Bottle at ChrisO "I’m Trying to see the Stool" pre GBBF2010 tasting. Haze brown. Bit diacetyl. Awful aroma and made it difficult for me to drink the rest of it.

0.33L bottle, small stable head, clear deep rusty orange with quite a lot of carbonation, malty aroma with some white fruit notes, flavour of bread and jam with a strong bitterness, a touch thick and heavy. Just drinkable.

Bottled@The Chriso Rock The Roof Down pre-GBBF shindig. Amber colour with small slightly off-white head, that leaves quite good lace. Aroma is quite bready and bisquity along with some slight caramel and mild floral hoppyness. Flavour is being quite much the same. Something between a bit sweet and rather bready. Ends with a mild toffeeish touch.

Bottle. Beer of the Month club. Clear amber color with a medium white head. Piney-citrusy hop aroma, with biscuity malt, caramel and cookie notes. Flavor has sweet malt upfront, caramel, toasty notes and light graininess, and finishes more bitter and hoppy. Medium-bodied. Decent.
