COOP Native Amber
From COOP Ale Works – We like to believe that Native Amber is a perfect blend of hops and malt. Caramel and biscuit notes carry the Cascade and Cluster hop additions through to a wonderfully round finish. Native Amber is assertive, yet balanced providing any craft beer fan a local option that has long been absent in Oklahoma City.
COOP Ale Works – COOP Native Amber – 16 oz. can poured into a pint glass. 6.3% abv. From Canfest 2011, thanks Franny!
Aroma: Caramel malts, bread, piny hops.
Taste: Citrus pine combo followed by some spicy sweet malt. Finishes with fruity bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Full bodied, slightly astringent. Average carbonation.
Overall: Usually not a fan of amber ales, but when you put a generous dose of Cascade in it, it’s some next level shit.

So sad I only have two cans of this left over! JD and the COOP folks are swell and hopefully we’ll make it out there to OKC in the future!
