Appearance: Amber-tan, medium hued body, lightly hazed with a heavily sudsy, off-white head.
Smell: Atop the foundation of caramel edged, toasted bread maltiness is hop scents smelling a tad woodsy, a bit spicy, with some pleasant citrus fruits notes and ultra faint, likely mentally conjured earthy peppercorn hints.
Taste: Toasty malts, with a sweetness of caramel with maybe a hint of brown sugar. Faint apricot. Minute peppercorn. Spicy, citrusy hops with some grapefruit showing. Medium bitterness - it doesn't knock you over, but, it is enough to provide for a semi-dry finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Overall: Neither too sweet, nor too bitter, it’s a well-rounded amber ale. The peppercorn addition? Well, it's extremely subtle, and wouldn't even be considered were it not listed in the title. But such is the way with peppercorns, particularly as the amber has a fairly vibrant flavor profile.
