A medium-bodied Amber Ale with a brilliant copper color. Top-fermenting ale yeast and a high proportion of imported Munich Malt create a clean, crisp beer with a toasty and slightly fruity backbone.

16oz can. Copper colored pour with a thick fluffy head. Aroma and taste are sweet and malty, tea. A bit past it's prime but an average amber

Heavy malt, think the bottle is a bit older than ideal though

Draught @ the source. Clear amber with large foamy whitish head, malt aroma, high carbonation, lightly bitter malty taste, thin body, abrupt finish. Not very remarkable.

Poured into a becher pint glass, the appearance was a ruddy light brown to amber color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated pretty quick. Lace slides into the beer.
The aroma had some sweet to roasty nuts, toast and biscuits, and grassy hops for some bitterness.
The flavor tried to blend the hops to malts but mainly stays with the malts as the forerunner of the taste. Semi-dry roasty sort of nutty aftertaste which holsters the same sort of finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Good carbonation. ABV felt fine where it is. Semi-smooth on my tongue.
Overall, fairly nice amber ale worthy of coming back to.

A copper amber ale with a very thin off white head. In aroma, light biscuit malt with faint grassy hops, so-so. In mouth, a rather light caramel malt with light mineral notes, watery bodied, light grassy hops, very plain. On tap at North Country Brewfest 2016.

Bottle. Pours a clear gold with small off white head. The aroma is fruity malt and toast. Medium mouth, citrus and caramel, decent.
