Just brewed it yesterday and seems to be the exact color but a little low on the gravity but thats just my efficiency. Tasted great, nice caramelly maltyness with a hoppy nose but not overpowering. Gonna rack it next week and see how its doing.

Just kegged this beer, and it turned out excellent. Great balance of sweet and bitter, with good malt flavor. This is my new house amber ale.
