COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed for our friends at Five Star Burgers, with whom we share a passion for all-natural, humane, environmentally-friendly production. Tell ’em we sent ya, and enjoy your meal! Like a great burger, this beer is a balancing act: malty but not too sweet, hoppy but not too bitter, distinct but goes down easy, nice round body but doesn’t fill you up. Moderate caramelly and toasty flavours. Amber waves of grain, with berries and weedy American hops creeping-in. You could graze here all day.

Pours light amber with an off-white head. The aroma has toasty bready malt, nice breadiness, piney / fruity hops and a lushness to all of it that’s not usually with amber ales. It has a medium body that is lightly rough body with a good amount of carbonation. The flavor starts with lots of toasty malt, dry breadiness, light red fruits and spicy hops. The finish is a bit drier and has more of a hoppy presence. Really nice amber ale.

UPDATED: MAR 19, 2014 Sampled at the brewpub in a nonic half pint, then took a growler home to savour. It poured a bright red-amber colour with sudsy beige foam, lingering with lace. Beautiful appearance. Grainy, grassy, just the right amount of residual sweetness, balanced but distinctive hop bitterness, interesting hops flavours and aromas too: faintly spicy, sorta musky, composty, vegetal, hot tomato garden, almost garlicy but not quite, these deScriptions sound negative, but I mean them in a very positive way. In any case, much more than just a great burger beer for sure. Delicious, highly recommended.
