Amber Ale·United States·4.8% ABV·One of 175 Amber Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share The Good Companions's malty and toasty character. A twist on the English-style pub ale: a low-ABV 4.8% brewed from Maris Otter, pale chocolate, Munich and spelt malts, building a canvas reminiscent of baked oatmeal cookies, and treated with a moderate dose of Yakima Valley honey that comes through in the glass. It is canned, and at the brewery it has also been poured on nitro.
