12 ounce bottle from Vintage Cellar in Blacksburg, VA. Bottle is notched E3. Pours a hazy ruddy copper color with a medium head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma is caramel, toffee, toasted malts and a light tart fruity note. Taste is bitter hops, tart fruits and caramel. Medium bodied.

Tap @ brewpub. Amber colour, short white head. Aroma of caramel malts. Flavour is sweet, with caramel and some pilsener malts. Sligthly dry finish.

Slightly hazy deep amber colour with orange tints and a small off-white head. Aroma of soap, lemons, wheat and coriander seed. Decent. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong caramal and malty tastes up front fading to a bitter soapyness. Aftertaste shows malt and cardboard with little else. Overall, an alright beer - not much to expect from an Amber anyways though. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle fresh, purchased from Merchant’s in Dearborn, Michigan and sampled there on 22-May-2005.

Moderately fresh bottle drunk December 2008. Very bountiful beige head rises up over a copper-caramel colored body with plentiful carbonation. Notes of caramel and light raisins with a fair amount of fruitiness from the yeast (prunes, raisins and such). Toffee and vanilla on the finish with a hint of tartness (bottling line infection and unpasteurization combined?). Sweet and sticky in the flavor, but with some toasted malt smoothing things/drying things out a touch. Lots of marmalade-like flavor from the combination of hops, yeast and caramel malt. Gets a little too acidic, however from the fruitiness and toastiness. Medium to medium-dry (some continued bottle fermentation, no doubt). Alcohol well concealed.

A very nice looking darker orange, cloudy with plenty of rolling carbonation for a show. Big foamy unfading head, probably because it was subject to a sudden jolt. Good carbonation. Chocolaty and malty at times. Quickly revealing lacing. Strong on the alky side as far as taste impression goes. Long lingering bitter finish. Quite a personality. .

12 oz. bottle. The ale surged out. Amber color with a two finger off-white head. Wonderful floral hop aroma - I’m in England. Medium body with fine carbonation. Flavor is more caramel malt than hop, but there is nearly enough bitter in the finish to remedy that. It’s really good, and it might fit ESB or Strong Ale across the pond.

Marigold and hay aroma. Color is deep amber, almost red, and not terribly clear. It has a thick tan head and leaves good lacing. The taste is biting and sour. There is a rather nice balance of grapefruit and hops. At times, yeast can be tasted, but only a very little. Finish is lime and quite refreshing.

12 oz. bottle. Cloudy tanish color. Aroma is sweet, with some spices in there. Taste had a slightly sour flavor, a bit like how other previous people have commented on - a little copper, a little odd. There’s no way this many around the country have just been infected. Was better cold before it began to warm.

Bottle - Arcadia sampler pack. Pour is amber, with a slight orange to it. Big head, decent lacing for an amber ale. Taste is malty, with OK body. Picked up on the slightest sour (orange peel?) taste. Overall, pretty ordinary.
