Schooner on tap at Szimpla near Auckland Airport. Very faint nose of grainy bread. Clear red/brown beer with a thin white head. Light carbonation. Good lacing. Slight zing, caramel toffee taste. Finish is drier with a sweet smoky tang. Easy to drink. Not complicated but pretty tasty.

Draft at the Londoner courtesy of nate2g, thank you!. Clear dark amber brown color, tan head. Aroma of burnt caramel on toast. Taste is similar. Nicely hopped.

Light amber colour. Aroma is full of caramel. Taste is similar, with lots of earthy goldingesque hops.

Pours dark amber with a small fading head.Nose shows caramel with very soft spicy notes in the background. Very faint aroma.Flavours are very similar; caramel and soft bready malt, along with a little honey.Could use more carbonation.Pretty devoid of hops seeing as they call this an American amber ale.
