James Squire Nine Tales Amber Ale

 I think ales are quickly becoming my favorite style of beer. Mental note to brew more of them.

Along with my haul of Coopers from the store I grabbed a James Squire merely on impulse, and it turns out that was a great idea. Their Nine Tales Amber Ale is quite good. The color is a fantastic reddish...well, amber color coming in at something just shy of 20 SRM. There's lots of lacing happening on my pint glass and the slightly nutty finish to the beer is really nice. It's neither hoppy nor particularly malty, but still extremely drinkable.

Recommended, for sure.
