COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Named after George Ehret’s, founder of Hell Gate Brewery and distant relative of the brewmaster, this American Amber Ale weighs in at 5.8% ABV. The specialty malts are balanced with just enough bitterness to produce a traditional amber ale that is dark red in color with a malty sweetness and a moderate caramel flavor. It has a rich mouth feel that is extremely smooth and drinkable.

Tap at the brew pub. Amber-orange color with lace. Nose is caramel, roasty malt, a bit faint though. Very earthy, slightly roasty flavor, nicely fruit, melon maybe. An interesting amber, earthy and roasty.

I thought this might have some rye in it but I guess not. It has that little extra texture, oiliness and spiciness that made it more interesting and tasty. Nose is very malt dominated. Red appearance with some lacing.

On tap at the Brewpub. Pours clear dark amber with white head. Aromas of malt, pine and toast. Taste is medium bitter, some sweet, greasy malts. Aftertaste is dry, somewhat bitter and dry. Great balance.
