Beers similar to Fancy Pants

Amber Ale·Australia·5.2% ABV·One of 124 Amber Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Fancy Pants's malty and toasty character. An amber ale the brewery describes as a rebuild of the first beer it released in 1997: a bigger malt bill and several late hop additions on top. It pours clear amber red with slightly off-white foam. The aroma is fruity and spicy, and the palate opens on toasted malt and toffee before turning floral and fruity towards a moderately bitter finish. It sits at the maltier end of the range.
