2003 vintage, served on tap 2/19/05 with Mkobes and Maibockaddict. Light brown-caramel colored body, with some light auburn hues and a moderate amount of caramel colored head. Aroma has some light hops notes, but mainly molasses, caramel and light yeast. Flavor is not highly sweet, yet it showcases a moderately dry malting, with light caramel/toffee/molasses notes. The hops do come out on the finish, and I must add, they do a very good job with the hopping here at Amherst. Light earthiness and graininess of body, but otherwise a medium amount of flavor. Moderate carbonation, very even, mellow beer. Has aged well and Amherst should be proud of this one. A bit light of body and flavor, though, in the end.
