## Resource

We can't overstate the importance of the Amber beer on early craft beer culture, as just about any brewpub worth its malt back then would have a shaker pint of a rusty red-ish ale or lager ready to pour at all times. But is it possible that ambers are back? Either way, they're back in our glasses in a major way with this downright impressive lineup that teaches us how to love again. Also, we are wondering why so many comedy sequels are forgettable; Craig has been holding out on his impressive flavor descriptors until now; and Ryan would've been insufferable if he'd discovered barleywines in high school. Call the Amber-lance - there's no dim, red floppers to be found here. Beers Reviewed Phase Three Brewing Company - P3 Amber (Amber Ale) Pollyanna Brewing Company - Amber Pines (Amber Ale) New Glarus Brewing Company - Tailwagger Amber (Amber Ale) Hopewell Brewing Co. - Shaker (Amber Ale) Supermoon Beer Company - Commonbier (Amber "Steam"-style Lager)
