We've done other Troegs brews on this site and have talked alot about their variety and great sampler packs.
One that I recently discovered from Troegs is their HopBack Amber Ale. This one is quickly becoming one of my favorite beers!
Great pour with a nice, big frothy head. Nice floral aroma, beautiful amber color.
HopBack gets its' name from a vessel in the brewhouse called a 'hopback.' This is Troegs flaghip brew.
It's 6% ABV and 55 IBU's (so this one is bitter, but not overwhelming). HopBack Amber Ale has a great taste and gives you a nice kick. It's a beer that you can feel going down your throat.
The Troegs website suggests big, robust flaovrs to pair with this beer like red meats and strong cheeses.
I would call this one an "Everyday Beer" -- especially if you like the bitters.
Cheers!
