The beer that helped build our brewery; Bell’s Amber Ale features both toasted and sweet caramel notes from carefully selected malts, balanced with herbal and citrus hop aromas. Capped by a clean bitterness, it’s incredibly versatile with food, but very tasty on its own.

Bottled. Pours cloudy amber with white head. Some malty caramelness and some hops kick. Pretty well balanced beer.

18th Dec 2019, on-tap pint in Board and Brew, Laguna Niguel. As you might surmise from it's name; it's amber in colour, the off-white head solid and stable. Malty nose and base taste, light floral and citrusy hop action for balance. Glad I finally got round to having one.

Ziemlich fruchtig für ein Amber, echt schöne Kombination. Optisch Kupfer, schöner Sahneschaum. In der Nase leichte Frucht, ebenso im Trunk, dann Karamell, sehr schöne Komposition. HInten leicht bitter.

On draught at Frontier Brewing and Taproom.

Pours a hazy orange gold..kinda red. Good head of foam and lacing.

Smells of some grain and roast, citrus hops.

Grain, bread, roast, citrus hops, smooth and enjoyable.

Lightish body, but again, very smooth.

Pours amber with a bubbly white head. Aroma of sweet fruit layered over a malt base. The taste is hoppy and sweet, fruit notes are pervasive throughout. The palate has slight woody notes on the nose that quickly fade out to a slightly resinous hop mouthfeel that finishes the beer off.
