Poured from a 12oz. bottle into a Clown Shoes pint glass.
The color is a clear amber with a finger of foamy off-white head and some thick lacing left on the glass.
The smell is sweet with a malted barley aroma and some dark fruits like raisins.
The taste is again, sweet malt with some biscuit flavor and a slight sugary flavor as well. There is a clear doughy flavor with some fruit flavor.
The feel of this beer is nicely medium bodied and has a nice refreshing drinkable feel. It goes down smooth and has just a touch of bitterness.

Amber colored ale work minimal head and lacing. Smells of caramel and toast. Tastes similar wil honey shining through. Balance is fair. Finishes bitter and a bit flat. Carbonation is a bit off. Good brew overall but not outstanding.
