Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a fading tan head over an amber body. Aroma of herbal hops, caramel, a bit skunky and catty, straw and berries. Taste is caramel, fruity and spicy hops. Light carbonation.

Bottle. Very hoppy aroma; the amber malt is there, though not really strong. Fruity, slightly sour, and just a little roasted. Flavor is amber malt, earthy, similar to biere de garde, but with a lot of hops. Some caramel, chocolate, lots of hops. A very nice balance, more hops than usual is nice. They go well with the amber malt. Finish is predominantly hops, but the amber malt sweetness is also lingering beneath. A very nice beer.

Bottle - thanks beerbill. Pours a murky orangish brown with a finger of creamy beige head. Nose of citrus, caramel, and light florals. Tastes a bit sweet, wet-hopped with citrus and light florals. A little caramel and toffee. It has that sense of nuts and bready malt like a brown ale, but still has plenty of citrus and sweetness like a hoppy amber or APA. A fun session brew.

Overall Impression: Not too bad, especially from the people that brought you the micro beer-miller lite (#9). Decently flavored and a decent balance to it.

Bottle. Pours a deep amber with just a hint of a haze to it and a big and fluffy beige head. A mixture of grapefruit, pine and sweet malt greets the nose, and flavor is very heavy on the pine and grapefruit hops, but lacks enough malt body to make things go together smoothly. The hops presence is remarkable, however... not too bitter, not too washed out, its just that the Roxy comes across more as a hops tea than a beer.

Bottle, Courtesy MP via NYC, thank ya fella! Reddy bronze colour with a decent tan head. Aroma was citrus, brown sugar and hop. Flavour was most pleasant, a well balanced mix of caramel malt, hops and spices. Crisp, bittersweet finish. Liked it Thanks for the Magic Hat glass too MP!!

Pours amber into a shaker. Off-white head with good retention recedes to coat surface. Mild hop aromas. Flat and watery with orange upfront and a grapefruit finish.

bottle - Pours dark amber with a one finger white head. It has an aroma of citrus accented hops and a little caramel malt. The flavor is definitely led by the hops with a bitterness much more akin to a pale ale than most amber ales. It’s medium bodied and finishes with some lingering hops bitterness. Pretty good.

Pours a dark amber with a tannish head. Smells of the malts. Hoppy taste with some malts in it. Kinda sweet on the side. Not very complex, but not bad by any stretch of the imagination.

This beer is a clear ruby-amber color with a thick and foamy beige head that has good retention. Sticky patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malt and piney hops. Medium-bodied and dry with flavors of hops, pine and spices along with a light malt base. The finish is moderately bitter at first but leaves a sweet malt aftertaste. This is a fairly enjoyable Amber all around.
