Bit fluffy, amber-tinted small head over foxy red-amber beer. Very fruity hops, with just a tad of human sweat, but generally smelling quite sweet, with sweet grapes, lychee, rosewater. Speculoos spices, sweet, overruling the C-hops. Somehow I suspect a lot of restsugars. Just the finish is a bit drier. Slightly sticky MF, light body, but quite slick. OK - the right hops. But whence all the near-syrupy malty sweetness? Fermented out?Bottle calls itself American Pale ale, BTW

Nice amber color with small head. English hops, caramely, not overwhelming. Caramely taste, but not sweet, moderate well-balanced bitterness. Not a bad interpretation of the classic english amber ale style. A hint more carbonation than its English-style brothers. My favourite of the Chopfab series. But I also personally like amber stuff. Also a super price/performance ratio.

330ml bottle from Drinks of the World, Winterthur. Pours a great red/amber colour. Sweet autumnal fruity taste with earthy malt, jam & caramel notes. Not as sticky sweet as others of this style. Very drinkable.

Das bernsteinfarbene Amber Ale aus dem Hause Doppelleu schafft es in die obere Bewertungshälfte. Es hat nette, malzig-süße Aromen, die sehr erfrischend wirken, wirkt im Körper aber etwas schwachbrüstig -nur Mut, möchte man sagen, die Richtung passt.

330 ml bottle. ABV is 5.4%. Beautiful copper to amber colour, moderate off-white head. Aroma first disappointing, of dust, caramel and stale jam, gets better as the beer warms up a little. The flavour is much better, malts, caramel (but not too sweet), burnt breadcrumbs, dark fruits, bitter hops in the finish. Quite enjoyable.
