This reddish Amber beer brewed with top fermenting yeast thanks its name to, you guessed it, the colour of the beer itself. This particular American Amber Ale has a light-sweet taste, a low-key hoppy bouquet and not too much alcohol. The well-balanced mix of malts gives this beer its characteristic colour and a clean finish.

Tap. Hazy amber color with beige head. Aroma is berries, caramel, fudge. Taste is caramel, berries, some slightly tart off-fruity flavours. Medium carbonation, silky mouthfeel. A bit too muddled for me.

Tap at the brewery. Pours amber with beige head. Aroma is grass, grease, caramel, some dryness, black tea. Flavor is sweet and bitter, caramel, malt, some more black tea. Finish is grassy with mild bitterness. Body is on the thin side. Overall: ok, the freshness adds some points. I can imagine that a couple of months old version would get less than 3....
