Now somewhat relegated to an occasional fall seasonal from breweries, the Amber style is essential to the history of American craft beer as we know it. So we’re pumped to see five local breweries dabble in amber ales and lagers, and we fall in love all over again (with the beers, not each other). Also, Craig has an unexpected pet, we accidentally have a moment of real beer talk about wilds and sours, Ryan vetoes an obvious 311 reference, and we are bringing our own ludicrous drinkware to the District Brew Yards until someone tells us “no.” Whoa-oh.  Beers Reviewed Casa Humilde Cerveceria - Alba (Mexican-Style Amber Lager) BuckleDown Brewing - Alien Avatar (Amber Ale) Maplewood Brewing - Amberana (Amber Ale conditioned on Amburana wood) Off Color Brewing - Beer For Huddles (Amber Ale) Burnt City Brewing (?) - Titan Walls 5 (Amber Lager)
