Can thanks to drfabulous! Pours hazy amber with a small beige head that dissipates fairly quickly leaving good lacing. Aroma is caramel, bread, pine. Flavor is medium sweet, light bitter, bready and nutty, with just a touch of metal on the finish. Medium body. Decent.

Kentucky Fried Charleston Trip Beer #40. Draft at Mellow Mushroom Lexington. Pours a hazy amber color with a thin frothy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of floral hops, stone fruits, caramel. The taste is caramel malt, toasted malt, herbal hops, mild stone fruits. Medium bodied, well balanced, refreshing.

Pours a hazy amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes slowly. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of malt, caramel and hops. Light-bodied with flavors of sweet caramel malt, grassy hops and fruit. The finish is sweet with an earthy malt aftertaste. Decent overall.

Can. Pineapple and caramel malt aroma. Hazy amber with a moderate ivory head. Toasty caramel malt and light fruity flavor with a very subtle bitterness. Light body, average carbonation. Not a bad amber at all.

Can as Amber Ale, courtesy of ContemplateBeer, thank you sir! Pours hazy deep dark amber color, giant tan head, solid lacing - a beautiful beer. Aroma of toast, caramel, summer fruit. Taste is bittersweet butterscotch. Better body and more complexity than your average amber.

Can. Lactic caramel malt aroma. Amber with large tan head. Sweet orange-caramel malt and mildly bitter herbal flavor. Not bad.

12oz can from drfabulous. I’m sure this is the correct beer, but the can doesn’t have "Deliberation" anywhere on it.
Appearance: Pours clear amber with a medium sized off-white head and some lacing
Aroma: Toasted malts, caramel and bready
Taste: Caramel, grainy, grassy with some bitterness in the finish, dry
A nice Amber, crisp and clean
