look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

I served the poured at a lower than recommended temp- at about 41F.
The beer has better tasting and aroma notes at the lower temp.

Color: a beautiful copper color with a 2 finger head which resolves to about 1 finger.

Aroma: Light cloves and spice. I was surprised at the aroma- most American amber ales are not spicy, and the aroma enhances the overall character of the beer.

Good carbonation indicative of the style- tangy and puckering on the tongue.

Lightly and pleasantly bitter at 35 IBUs.

The taste, like the aroma, is different for this style: tangy orange, citrus, grapefruit.

Overall- a solid red ale. This beer is far more enjoyable than the typical American Amber- it has good flavor: fruit and spice.

The spice and fruit fades with warming. A colder temperature will bring out a good aroma and taste, and also a special tang. Stemware is recommended.
