Pleasant, but light, malt aroma backed by a hint of grassy/floral hop. Nice amber color with a white head that did not stick. Twirling the glass evinces some temporary lacing. Sweet darkish malt flavor; almost chewy mouthfeel. Carbonation is on the edge of too much. The finish has a little hop, but not enough to balance out the malt. Leaves the mouth a bit tingly though, so there must be something besides malt.

Thought this was an amber when I bought it. Color is light amber, rather thin looking. Malts dominate the taste, also present are hops and roasted tones. A bit sweet overall. A smooth finish is the best part of this beer.

Pours a clear light amber. Has very little head. Has just a little woody taste. Not bad but not good.

Bottle Pours a clear light amber with a small short lived white head. Thin spoty lacing. Aroma is more like tea than beer. A bit fruity, apple pear maybe. Falvors are kind of a sweet cardboard. Almost no hops, some malt and a bit of brown sugar. Not unpleasant just not partiv\cularly inspiring. Feel is nice and carbonation is fairly lively. Trailer is a sweet slightly woody cut grass taste. "The Elk on the label is cool" LOL

Another find at Albertson''s in Huntington Beach. Orange color with a thin and quickly dissipating head. Very thin lacing. Pungent malty aroma. Slightly malty flavor with a sour finish. Very poor attempt at an Amber.
