Poured into a becher pint glass, the appearance was a sturdy red color with a finger’s worth of sly white foamy head. Stringy lace.
The aroma started off with some roasted malty nuts. Some toffee/caramel sort of cleanliness hits some bitter citrus to piney hops.
The flavor takes the malts and leans them up against the bitter hops, somewhat there and somewhat not. Crisp sort of roasty malts and hop burn in the aftertaste and that hits the finish somewhat dryly.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Mild carbonation. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, even with the hop burn in the aftertaste and finish, I like this one. Seems like mostly everything fits, but also perhaps an amber ale that some may need to get used to.

Bottle. Sugary orange malt and orange peel aroma. Cloudy amber with large light tan head. Sweet citrus caramel malt and moderately bitter herbal quinine flavor. Good body.

Bottle: Hazy, orange-amber with a frothy beige head. Aroma of caramel....and a slightly cedary/leafy/spicy/evergreen note . Taste is soft, caramel malt, leafy,.....almost feels like some New Zealand hopping.... Really good...fresh-feeling and very tasty.

Location: Bottle shared at Max and Andy's Tasting, 2/28/15
Aroma: The aroma is malty, some light citrus hops, toast notes as well
Appearance: This one pours a darker orange color, with a beige head
Flavor: Clean and malty flavor profile, with some mild hops, similar to the nose
Palate: The body is medium, with a decent enough mouthfeel overall
Overall Impression: Found this one to be just okay. I don't have a ton to add beyond that. It's drinkable. A little surprised to see it so high in the style.

Bottle at Bodega. Pours a clear amber with a large fluffy tan head that lasts throughout the beer and laces. Aroma has a combination of earthy grains and earthy pine with a decent amount of grass as well. Flavor is similar with dank pine and earthy grains as well as a biscuit backing.

Bought June 2014 as single bottle from Lemon Tree. Big malty smell right under the cap, and an impression of a higher alcohol beer. Rich, foamy head atop a brown ale body, darker than amber, I think. Taste is indeed big on malts. Hops are there as a kind of sting to one part of the tongue. There may be some oxidation going on. I think because just seeing a name like "Ambergeddon" on the label made me think it must be a higher-alcohol beer that can cellar, turns out it may have sat for longer than it should have.

Sample at the brewpub. Clear dark amber color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily to an outer ring. Stringy lacing. Malt, caramel and hops in the nose. Medium body with flavors of caramel, malt and subtle resiny hops. The finish is malty up front with a piney hops aftertaste. Decent overall.
