A full-bodied Amber Ale that stays true to the definition of an Amber. Smooth malty flavor, medium body and a fresh but mild hop finish

On tap at the brewery pours out crisp clean amber topped with a sand head. Nose is light hops and a bread malt. Taste is more of the light grassy pine hops and a mellow malt.

Not impressed with this one, even though it was designated their most popular. My wife really liked it, but she prefers English bitters. Very soft, to the point of blandness, caramel color with faint malt aroma. Mouthfeel while slick, was very tasteless (to me).

On Tap at Wingers in Nampa, ID, August 18th. It was a bit flat and had no real head. Fairly light for an amber and nice woody malt flavors. That slight sour tang it had was a bit like cider and it put me off a bit, It was also fairly hoppy or bitter rather, and bright for the style, I thought. I am glad to see a new brewer in the area though and will be watching for other Crescent offerings around the area.
