Beer Profile
Amber Ale – medium mouthfeel, deep amber colour, and a crisp finish. It has a strong malt flavour and notes of sweet caramel/toffee that complement the roasted malt taste. The subtle hop presence gives the beer an almost flowery aroma. Notes of honey and dried fruit can also be detected.

Food Suggestions
Due to a typically dry finish, amber ales are great beers for cleansing your palate and ideal with a wide range of foods like: chicken, seafood and burgers. They are also great with spicy cuisine – think Jerk Chicken. You could also consider amber ales when eating slightly tangy cheeses (like Port-Salut) and of course with desserts – items such as pecan cookies, banana pound cake, and poached pears with dulce de leche (a caramel sauce from Latin America).
