1st & Ten Amber
Hop Haus Brewing Company

 

Canned 8/7/18, poured into a pint glass and drank 44 days later while watching the Indians game from my couch. Smooth, down the middle pour leaves almost a 1" head, dissipated in about 2 minutes to a beer coaster thickness. Color is nice - a rich reddish amber with golden highlights and a clean look. Not a lot of haziness in this beer. The smell is almost non-existent, but what is there is a faint lightly roasted caramel, well short of the "burnt" caramel that I find many other Ambers have.

The taste, like the smell, is very faint. But what little is there is pleasant - mildly sweet with no bitterness. The feel is on the thin side, almost watery, but crisp. Is there such a thing as a "Session Amber"? This is it. I like it.

Poured from a 12oz can into a shaker pint glass. Canned on 8/3/18. Appearance is a nice dark amber color, definitely a carmel malt backbone to this one. Good head retention and a smooth mouth feel. Flavor is mostly toasted malt with some sweet overtone. It’s a nice new beer just in time for fall.
