This is another beer that I got from Stephanie at Flying Dog. This beer is a normally distribution beer unlike yesterday's. I always like the art work on Flying Dog beers, it a nice change from bottles that try to blend in.
There is very little aroma to this beer, just a slight honey and hazelnut smell. The color is amber as the name implies, and very clear. The foam is thick with mild retention.
The taste is sweet with honey flavors, and complimented with a slight floral hop taste. The mouthfeel is smooth with a medium body and mild carbonation. The finish is sweet without any bitterness.
This is a fine example of an amber ale. I don't prefer amber ale because I think they are too sweet for my taste. I am happy to find the light hop flavor among the sweetness in this ale.
