Ticks: 9

"All men are equal". Fortunately that does not apply to beer. We think that our American Amber for example, is pretty special: covered by a beautiful head it is a deep red and wonderfully balanced beer, with a nice body and a fruity bitterness.
The colour is achieved by using 5 differently roasted barley malts, whilst the aroma comes from typical fruity American hops. The specialised yeast is imported from America, it helps to balance each wonderful flavour perfectly.

Thanks to kermis! 330 ml. bottle sampled @ “Dean’s sticky Bomb Shelter” Tasting. Very hazy amber, little head. Nose is metallic, syrup, brown sugar, mocha, herbal,… Taste is syrup, mocha, brown sugar, herbal, insecticide, vegetable,… Very oily herbal body. Weird,… Doesn’t really work or makes much sense. Basic sweetness helps this one,… Still not much of a fan.

33cl Bottle from De Bierboetiek, thanks Chris&Suus! Slightly hazy deep amber colour, fizzy off-white head. Aroma of yeast, sweet ripe fruits, caramel, homebrew. Flavour is yeasty, light spicy, caramel, candied fruits, light leafy, some citrus, bitter finish. Over-carbonated. OK-ish.

Bottle @ The Hague Tasting. Clear amber color, average sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, lightly fruity, overripe fruits, a slight hint of something weird. Average body and carbonation. Meh.
