Dark amber,beige head.Light carmel malt nose.Vague malt palate with some out of place hop bitterness. Poor and no depth. Why bother ?

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Hazy dark amber-red color with compact head. A bit of caramel, that’s all this beer has to offer; mild woody bitterness in the final. No malt depth, no hop quality.
Extremely boring Amber Ale.

On cask at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy amber with a small beige head. Aroma is quite restrained, with notes of subtle resinous dry hopping and light caramel bready malt. Flavour is really dull, with earthy cardboardy-like hops atop stale bready malt. Not sure what was intended here, but this is way off. Not good.
