Our Tastes-- Star Hill Amber Ale

All of these tasters may be the reason why I didn't go through the mad brown/black monster, but continuing on with many more left, I'm trying Star Hill Amber Ale. Brewed in Charlottesville, VA, this is a super Amber. The head pours flat which is pretty traditional with a great malty aroma (smells like pecans). Color fades to a medium brown. The taste is the kicker, it's a great slightly hoppy libation. As of yet the best of the 122 D.C. bootlegs. What strokes me is the Perle (bittering) and Fuggle (aroma). These are hard to come by now, wonder if they can keep this up. 4.8%abv AND it's a keeper, damn I hope legislation passes soon.
