Cosmos Martian Rambler Amber

Cosmos Brewing Martian Rambler Amber Ale. "Save Space For Beer!" 5.8% all. by vol. 25 IBU. Cosmos Brewing, Hugo, MN.

Clear, dark amber color, ivory head that starts big and settles quickly.

In the nose: Clean and malty, lightly sweet.

In the mouth: Smooth and malty, medium bodied, fairly faint finish. Slightly on the sweet side, this. There are hops here, too, just enough to keep it all in balance.

One flaw I find is that leans a little too far into the sweet side. Spicy rye malt keeps in interesting.

"Are we alone in the universe?" A true American amber, Martian rambler is crafted using only ingredients produced in the USA. Malt forward with a touch of hops, rye provides a hint of spice on the back end."
