🌍 Australia · Amber Ale · One of 32 Amber Ales in hopIQ

An amber ale of reduced strength, named after two Australian brewers who advised the founders early on. Vienna and Carapils malt give it a deep amber colour and a core of toffee and roasted caramel over a light bready sweetness. Whole hop flowers of Cascade, East Kent Goldings and Stella add lemon peel and a faint herbal edge without pushing forward. The bitterness stays gentle, the mouthfeel velvety, the finish short.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Rogers'

Appearance

Rogers' presents a deep amber hue, built from Vienna and Carapils malts that render a warm, burnished tone against the light. The beer shows good clarity with a fine, persistent head that clings to the glass with delicate lacing. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated, contributing to the overall refined presentation.

Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced toffee and roasted caramel notes, underpinned by a light bready sweetness that speaks to the restrained malt bill. Whole flower hops—Cascade, East Kent Goldings, and Stella—introduce bright lemon peel and a subtle herbal complexity without dominating the bouquet. The balance favors malt character, with bitterness barely perceptible on the nose.

Taste

The palate opens soft and sweet, with caramel and roasted malt forming the core flavor. A light bready character provides structure without heaviness, while the citrus contribution from whole flowers adds definition and lift. Bitterness remains gentle and restrained, allowing the malt sweetness to persist through the mid-palate before fading gracefully.
