All About American Amber Ale

If you feel like this is too long to read, then tell us to shut the fuck up.

The American Amber Ale is a modern American craft beer style that is amber to coppery-brown in color, hoppy, and moderately strong, with a malty caramel flavor, though the balance between malt and hops can vary. The hop aroma and flavor are typically from American or New World hop varieties, which can have citrusy, floral, piney, resinous, spicy, tropical, or berry-like characteristics. The maltiness can range from moderate to high, and usually has a moderate caramel character, sometimes with toasty or biscuity notes. The bitterness is moderate to high, and the finish is medium to full yet dry, and alcohol levels range from  4.5% to 6.2% ABV.

The style originated as a variation from American Pale Ales, and was popularized in the hop-loving regions of Northern California and the Pacific Northwest before spreading nationwide. The style differs from American Pale Ales by being darker, more caramelly, fuller-bodied, and more balanced towards malt than hops. It also differs from American Brown Ales by having less chocolate and dark caramel flavors.

American Amber Ale is brewed with pale ale malt, medium to dark crystal malts, and sometimes other specialty grains. American or New World hops are used for bittering, flavoring, and sometimes dry hopping. Neutral to lightly estery yeast is used for fermentation.  Overall, these are easy beers to knock back a few, and no one is complaining about that. Except for the corporate stiffs.
