Dick’s Mountain Amber Ale is a classic amber ale with large quantities of two special varieties of lightly roasted malts that contribute a deep malt profile to this very drinkable and attractive ale.
The bittering hop addition is designed to achieve perfect balance; not too bitter and not too sweet – just right! Large additions of Northwest flavor and aroma hops give our Amber its delicious finish which lingers on the palate.

12oz bottle pours clear copper – gold with thin white head. Does the “mountain” part of this amber prevent it from attaining an amber color? This is the goldest amber I’ve ever seen. The aroma is sweet malts mixing with caramel malts and a touch of biscuit and toffee. The taste has some modest yet vague to maybe pine hoppy notes blending with caramel malts, sweet sugary malts and a touch of roastiness. I think I get a sense of citrus into the finish. Interesting interpretation.

Bottle; now labeled as Mountain Amber Ale. Strong malty aroma - caramel plus. Almost smells like a brown ale. The color of ripe apricot flesh; the white head never got far, and then retreated to film. Light lacing as the glass is lightly twirled. Medium body; medium carbonation. Almost creamy as the carbonation leaves. The malt is harsh, much like many brown ales. Earthy. The hop seems floral, and a sour taste pops up. Could be citrus. Seems a bit like the sour notes in many Siletz ales. The final finish is unsmooth medium dark malt - not the sugar, just the roast. The hop seems to never break even. Interesting. More guts than many ambers.

Bottle Pours a clear copper/amber witha nice full light tan head. Aorma is a nice malt, and brown sugar. Not much hops, and also a bit of banana or pear. Flavor is mainly woody and cardboard. The dark malts come through and attempty to salvage some assembelance of flavor. Finish is dry and grassy with ust \hint of hops.
