Traditional American Amber Ale with a seductive auburn complexion. A mild caramel sweetness leads to an exquisite balancing act of malt and hops before a smooth and pleasantly floral and earthy ending.

A- pours a dark copper brown with just a bit of haze, small creamy white head that reduces quickly, leaving a bit of lace
S- sweet and malty with some caramel, just a hint of hop bitterness
T- sweet and malty with a bit of caramel, slightly metallic taste transitions to a piney hop character. The finish leaves a touch of chocolate with some bready malt character and a dry finish
M- medium body with high carbonation, slightly creamy mouthfeel with a smooth finish
O- easy drinking ale, balance seems just a bit off, but good

poured a nice, reddish copper. very clear although sporting virtually no head.
actually had to let this one warm a bit before I really started to enjoy it.
Fruity sweetness in the nose. Slighty bready with caramel notes poking through.
Taste was nice on the palate. Full, well bodied with a nice caramel sweetness and fruity undertones.
