Amber Ale

North American brewers are now producing ales that are identified by the term “amber ale.” This is a more modern, nontraditional style, and many of these beers borrow heavily from the characteristics associated with more classical styles such as pale ales or bitters. Amber ales are light- to medium-bodied and can be anywhere from light copper to light brown in hue. Typically amber ales are quite malty but not heavily caramelized in flavor.
