Thomas Creek, Appalachian Amber Ale

Crystal clear copper.  Nice alabaster head.  Smells like a typical American amber ale.  Nothing unique, but still pleasant.

It's advertised as 40 IBU, but I think it might be a little higher.  High carbonation.  There's some good flavor on the font end, but it's quickly assassinated by the bitterness.

I'm typically content with amber and red ales, but this one just isn't appealing to me.
