4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 jmarsh123 (163) - Indiana, USA - OCT 2, 2013
A - Pours a deep red with slight head and good lacing.
S - Caramal malts and citrus/grapefruit.
T - Wow this is where this shines. Very bitter hops up front, mellowing out into nice caramel, bready tones and finishing with a nice dry bitter taste.
M - Decent thickness and well carbonated for the style.
D - I could (and have) put down multiple ones in one session. There are many different things going on this beer that the bitterness of the hops doesnt get too overpowering.

Draft sample at IBGW 2011. Poured clear brown color with an average frothy off-white head that mostly lasted and produced good lacing. Moderate balanced aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. This soft beer met my expectations.

4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20 Beerowulf (76) - , Indiana, USA - AUG 21, 2010
Peoples is less than a year old, but churning out some great brews. Aberrant Amber is no exception. Tasted it at the Tap Room in Lafayette and took a growler home.
Color is dark amber, aroma of malt. Tangerine/grapefruit hints with the malt taste. Frosty 1 finger head. Centennial and Amarillo hops used and not overpoweringly so. Pleasant aftertaste. A great session beer.
