The fiery color and unique thirst quenching hop profile give this amber ale a signature all its own. Hand-selected Cascade hops from the NorthWest United States provide a distinct citrus flavor, while still allowing for a subtle malty sweetness.

Copper/amber coloured body with a thin tan head. Aroma of malt, nuts and not much else. Medium to Light-bodied; Mild malty flavours with caramel, nuts, raisins and some pitted fruits in. Aftertaste shows mild characteristics with only some nuts and malt going through - pretty bland indeed. Overall, a decent beer, good as an escape from some of the stronger beers, but that’s about it. I sampled this beer on draught in June 2010.

Overall Impression: Not particularly hoppy, this is an alright beer. I didn't find it particularly exciting, but not particularly bad either, it just kind of is. Decent, drinkable.

A hazy orange-amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is very light with notes of hops and malt. The flavor is very nice with a good toffee and caramel back ground, before a nice bitter citrusy dry hoppy note appears. A nice thirst quencher.
