#37 - The Caledonian Brewing Company - McEwan's Amber

I tend to be a big fan of the Caledonian Brewing Company, but McEwan's Amber is fairly disappointing.  It tastes watery, is quite sweet, and has very little discernible flavor.  On the plus side, at 4.2% it is a pleasant enough as a low end session beer, and is relatively smooth.  The casual drinker might consider it preferable to a glass of water and equally thirst quenching, but beyond that limited utility it strikes me as relatively pointless.  I have reviewed a number of budget beers for this blog thus far and while outstripping all of them in price, McEwan's Amber is not clearly more enjoyable than the majority of budget offerings.  5.5/10
