Dark amber pour with creamy off white head and lace. Medium caramel malt with a hint of resiny hops. Sweet caramel maltiness with a very light bitter. Creamy carbonation from a medium/full bodied beer. Nice body for an amber. Pretty special beer to me.

on tap-pours an off white head and amber color. Aroma is caramel medium malt, copper hops. Taste is slightly sweet caramel medium malt, peat, copper hops-with some bitter.

On tap at the brewpub. The body was deep gold, nearly amber with an off white head. The aroma was light caramel and oranges with some almond notes. The taste was toast and almonds. There was a nice citrus finish.
