review: Cannery Brewing Anarchist Amber Ale

Today's beer adventure: Cannery Brewing Anarchist Amber Ale (Penticton, BC). 650ml Bottle (also available in cans). 5.5% ABV. Served in my stolen BP pint glass. Purchased at Willow Park Wine and Spirits in Regina ~$7.00/bottle

The pour is medium orange amber in colour. Two fingers of solid bubbly head. Decent lacing on the glass. Light carbonation. Nose is sweet malt, biscuit, sweet toffee. Sweet sweet. Slight hops

Flavour is lively on the tongue. Sweet, bready, biscuity malt. Alcohol is there. Slight sour(?) hoppy flavour. Bitter, slightly dry finish.

Rating is 7.0/10 dogs. Pretty decent. The last Cannery Brewing offering (Naramata Nut Brown -> http://ddoggsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2012/02/review-cannery-brewing-naramata-nut.htmlI tried was solid as well, but this one would be ordered before that one. I do enjoy ambers, but his one is not quite as nice as Fat Tire and nowhere near Alaskan Amber.
