Nut brown in color and lightly hopped with Willamette, this beer is dominated by a pleasing caramel finish that is darn close to heavenly. 5.2% ABV.
The Almost Heaven Amber Ale is named after John Denver’s ode to West Virginia, Country Roads. The picture on the tap handle is the Mountain State Brewing Co logo. It shows the peaks and summits of the Allegheny Highlands, part of the vast Appalachian Mountains, where our Brewhouse is located.

Can, thanks to my boss who picked it up for me on her trip home this past weekend. Thanks Christy! My first WV beer - my other WV ticks have been ciders. And finally... drinking this one for my old friend Big Bob. Even though he thought "good beer" was Dos Equis and called it "Dulseckies" he was a great guy and I'm very sad he's gone. Now down to the review. Pours amber with a soft beige head. Aroma is red fruit, caramel. Flavor is caramel, green and brown leaf, green and brown grass, light rose, light fruit, light dough. Though pretty standard, it's very drinkable and inoffensive.

Can, thanks to Weihenweizen. Pours hazy dark amber with small foamy beige head, malty aroma, crisp malt taste with a hint of caramel, medium carbonation, thin body, abrupt finish with little caramel aftertaste. Decent, not spectacular.
