Alaskan Amber

I picked up a bottle of Alaskan Amber in California and shipped it home to myself. The beer pours a a red tinted amber color with a foamy off-white colored head that leaves some lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of lots of caramel, toasted toffee, butterscotch, and fresh grassy hops. The taste is smooth and sweet with plenty of caramel on the front end, toffee, and butterscotch. The malts then transform into a dryer grassy hop with a light finish. The alcohol content is 5.3% ABV. This is a quality made amber ale and the variety of sweet malts was quite enjoyable, especially with the butterscotch accents. I highly recommend this beer for all of you amber lovers.
