HomeBrew recipe for a dry-hopped American Amber Ale. Medium-bodied with balanced malts, citrus, fruity and a trace of spicy hop flavors. Medium hop bitterness in the finish. A balanced beer with plenty of hop flavor, but with moderated alcohol and calories. Enjoy several!
Nice complex malt base with just enough bitterness to offset the sweetness of the caramel malt and wonderful citrus hoppiness contributed by the late addition and dry Amarillo hops. Very pleasant, tasty and smooth. Low enough alcohol to enjoy several. Guests for the Super Bowl all raved. I will brew this one again and again.
