12 ounce bottle into pint glass, no bottle dating. Pours lightly hazy/cloudy reddish/orange/copper color with a 1 finger dense light khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/roast, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/bready malt and light earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of big caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/roast, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Light herbal/grassy/spicy hop and roast bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/roast, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready malt and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Slight dryness from hop/roast bitterness, lightly increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, and slightly sticky/chalky mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.3%. Overall this is a nice standard amber ale. All around good complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready malt and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth and easy to drink. Well round malt complexity with just enough earthy hops to balance. A nicely enjoyable offering.

On tap at Schmohz. Orange-red mostly clear body, thin cream head. Perfumey, flowery aroma with notes of caramel. Caramely body with plenty of perfumey hops, combining for an unusual floral and fruity effect. Long bitter finish. Interesting beer, not one I see myself drinking much of as a session beer though.
