Roxy Rolles Amber Ale

Mmmm, that’s hoppy! My initial reaction to Magic Hat‘s Seasonal Amber Ale called Roxy Rolles. This amber has enough hops in it to get the taste buds going and finishes smoothly leaving you eager for another sip.

This beer is a body warmer with its rich amber color, citrus and honey flavors and a bit of malts too.

Part of Magic Hat’s Seasonal releases, Roxy Rolles is worth trying out. Magic Hat is not organic, however, their environmental practices are definitely outstanding.

We believe that being as environmentally friendly as we can be is good business practice. Our spent grain is picked up by a local farmer who feeds it to his cows, instead of just throwing it away. We cool our hot wort (before fermentation) through a heat exchanger- it’s basically two tubes running next to each other, one tube has hot wort in it and one tube has cold water. The wort cools down, the cold water heats up, and we use that hot water in making mash (instead of heating water separately, we’re using heat that’s already there). We also treat our wastewater and are go through several steps to decrease our production of waste water.
