Can. Pours a dark murky amber with a high, sticky, lacy, off-white head. Nose is dates, figs, tea, turbinado sugar, and orange. Bitter up front, with very little sweetness; the tea-like note continues through the tongue, with definite tannic elements present. Reminds me of instant iced tea -- not in a good way. Carbonation is too low. Finish remains tea-like. Not crazy about this one.

Cavie (4043) - Fort Worth, Texas, USA - JUN 11, 2014
Tap at HopDoddy. Pours a clear red orange color with a foamy white head. Aroma is fairly hoppy, good hop backbone with a malty balance. Flavor is also quite hoppy. Bitter dry finish. This is great! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

ben4321 (4897) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - MAR 18, 2014
Location: Draft at the San Antonio CIA, 1/24/14

Aroma: The nose is clean and light, with some hop notes, bread, and caramel malts
Appearance: It pours a nice amber color with a beige head and some nice lacework
Flavor: The flavor is similar, light-medium sweet, balanced by a light., clean hop bitterness
Palate: The body is light-medium, a hint thin, but not super watery, with a solid overall drinkability
Overall Impression: I thought this one was pretty solid. The nose is a little light, but I thought they overall flavor profile worked pretty well. You could do a lot worse than this clean, balanced, drinkable Amber.

travita (4538) - Frisco, Texas, USA - MAY 13, 2013
Draught. The look is amber in color, hazy, with a thin off white head. The smell is bland, typical hop grab bag, malt, and blah. The taste is styrofoam, malt, cardborad, and iffy.

Mora2000 (6095) - McKinney, Texas, USA - APR 13, 2013
On tap at the Big Texas Beer Fest. Amber with a white head. The aroma and flavor are very similar and are not that exciting. I get some light toffee and biscuit malt notes, as well as a hint of malty sweetness. Thin mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Not bad, just not too exciting.
