AMBER GETS THE GREEN LIGHT

Amber has now been given the green light and will be available to about 24 pubs across the South West.  We have been working on the beer for a long time now and the gurus in the brew house are fully confident that we can now brew a 4.0 beer that Devon can be truly proud of. What better week to see Amber's debut than in National Cask Ale April 6th -12th. Amber very cunningly fills the big gap in gravity (strength) between Otter Bitter (3.6%abv) and Otter Ale (4.5%abv).  We've been asked by many landlords for a beer of this strength, so - welcome Amber.

Amber is a golden amber beer in colour but the first thing that really zings out, is its lovely aroma - citrus and piney - quite powerful and spicy compared to Bitter and Ale.  The taste is predominantly a balance of soft tropical fruit, spice and possibly a bit of ginger - you'll have to try it and be the judge of that.  The after taste leaves a traditional bitterness. Definitely concluding that this is another 'moreish' beer in the Otter holt of beers.

Above all, the beer's strength positions it so as not to erode the popularity of Bitter and Ale, rather as a great alternative to some of the foreign mid gravity beers we see on our Devon bars!
