Beers similar to 1892 Traditional Ale

Quidi Vidi Brewing Company

Amber Ale·Canada·5% ABV·One of 142 Amber Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share 1892 Traditional Ale's caramel and malty character. The first beer the brewery ever made, built on two-row malt and a mix of North American and European hops. It pours a deep amber and holds a modest off-white head. Caramel and toasted bread lead the aroma, with a soft nutty edge behind them, while the hops contribute a light floral and faintly herbal lift rather than citrus. Malt sweetness carries the middle without turning heavy, and a mild bitterness trims the finish clean.
