    Tasting Notes:
    Hop forward American Amber very fruity/piney but still malty
    My first attempt at an Amber and I think it turned out great! It has a good malt backbone but the fruity Amarillos shine through. I was going to go with Amarillo to dry hop also but wanted to try out the Falconer's Flight I recently picked up...great decision!

    Enjoy!
