Let down after having an unimpressive Rated R, I moved on to the seasonal, hoping for bigger & better things. Or at least better.
Another dull beer with minimal life, at least this one is an appropriate amber color. The nose - oh, no. The nose is sweet. And fruity.
Main Stage Amber suffers from an identical flaw as did Rated R - now I'm convinced this is a brewing problem. Unlike the Rated R, there isn't a strong presence (rye) to drown out the sweetness, so now all I'm getting is sweet fruit off of this 'amber'. I'm certainly going to finish it, doesn't taste bad, but it tastes almost the same as the Rated R. Pretty sure it's not supposed to.
Well, two beers I wouldn't bother with again. I wish 612Brew well, but I hope they can clean up their beers & make them taste as advertised, because if they can do that, they'll do well. But I won't hurry back anytime in the near future.
