--Keg at Man in The Moon, Stockholm. -- Clear amber, small head. Aroma of rose water and toast. Mid sweet with light to medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Roasty malt, mild perfumy hops. Mid bitter finish. Functional and pleasant.

Can, from Beer Run. Pours lightly cloudy amber-red with foamy light beige head, faint resin aroma, high carbonation, medium bitter caramel-citrus taste, thin body, long finish. Interesting brew, kind of a hoppy amber ale.

Can from trip to Vermont. Pours a clean amber colour with frothy warm cap, good retention and sticky lacing. Fresh hops in the smell at first, but gets greener, grassier with time with light caramel base. The taste is not as hoppy at first, but becomes more and more bitter. Nice grass lingers. Good clean amber background. Gets hazy at last pour. Just like the label says "A hoppy amber ale". And a nice one at that.

At a tasting, thanks, medium stable dense off white creamy head, light cloudy deepish orange color, aroma of wood and pine, soappy flavor with some pine, shrubs and nuts and a little harsh bitterness. Boring and not too good.

Can sample at a tasting at kerenmk’s place. Thanks Stas. Cloudy orange-amber with an off-white head. Decent hoppy aroma, citric, fruity. Flavor has light sweetish malt, and some bitterish fruity hops. Medium-bodied. Decent.

16oz can from Julio’s Slightly hazy deep amber color with a huge frothy off white head that persists forever. Solid hit of citrus hop with lots of caramel and bready with a touch of pine and resin. Not bad for an amber ale.

On tap at the Tunbridge Fair craft beer tent, pours a murky amber with some creamy, slightly off white head. Interesting nose, there’s malt, spice, mild hop, toffee, chewy grain, a little lemongrass maybe, some resin. Flavor has chewy grains, mild bread, a little cookie, some hop there, pine resin, soap. Lightly sweet finish.

Can shared in NYC. Pours clear copper with a creamy topping. The nose holds pine, toasty grains, hints of caramel. Light sweet flavor with ripe berries, some leather, earth, pine, grainy toast. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with toasty grains, faint tangy berries, crackers, earth, leaves. So so.
