Join us as we walk you through how to brew a delicious American Amber Ale!
The American Amber Ale is a hoppy, session-strengthed, amber beer with a nice balance between a rich malt profile with caramel, biscuity flavors, and a noticeable hop profile with citrusy, fruity flavors. The hop profile should be apparent, but not overwhelming. Too much hop character in both flavor and bitterness will put you closer to an American Pale Ale.
Follow along as we walk you through our ingredients, including the malts, hops, water profile, and yeast strain. We will also show you our process, including the mashing profile, mash out, sparging, the boil, the whirlpool, knockout, the fermentation profile, and last but not least, the taste test.
