You're not my beer, Fat Tire, but I'll drink you anyway. Appearance is a solid amber. Smell is interestingly of cereal and hops, citrus hops at that. Let's give her a taste. I get a hoppy and malty beer with a creamy finish. Nicely done overall. I'd drink it again, but I have an embargo against all NB beers for personal reasons. I'd say drink up if it's your cup of brew hah hah.

Copper color with a nice fluffy white head good laceing. Sweet butter biscuit, slight bit of hops for the smell. The taste much like the smell biscuits with sweet butter carmal malt, slight hoppy finish. Mouthfeel is kinda thin but no biggie for this amber ale. The one thing I like most about this amber ale is the sweet butter biscuit that it does so well that many other amber ales don't have. it makes it a little more then just caramal malts like most amber ales.
