Beers similar to Nine Tales

Amber Ale·Australia·5% ABV·One of 135 Amber Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Nine Tales's caramel and malty character. Copper-red and malt-driven, built on pale and crystal malts that bring toffee and caramel sweetness with a nutty, bready close. Super Pride and Willamette set a citrus and lightly herbal counterpoint against that sweetness, and the bitterness lands mid-range at 20 IBU. Fuller in body than the strength suggests, with a soft, rounded feel through the middle. In the range longer than any current beer, sold for years simply as James Squire Amber Ale.
