Had on tap. Mostly clear amber body with a tan head, sudsy lazy lacing. Earthy malt and bready yeast in the simple nose. Taste adds toast and mild dried dark fruit skins, more malty than yeasty. Feel is medium bodied and has a good balance of everything until the end as a good bit of astringency to it.

Appearance: amber in color with a 1/2" head that lingers a while.

Smell: light bread aroma is all you can detect.

Taste: caramel, apples, bread, plums, some earthy tones and a mellow bitterness.

Mouthfeel: medium bodied beer. Lightly crisp from start to finish.

Overall: an easy drinking amber that is straightforward and hits the spot.

At the brewery.
Amber reddish color with a thick beige head with good retention.
Mild aroma with notes of red fruits, creamy chocolate, yeast, papaya and biscuit malts.
Flavor with notes of chocolate, spices, lots of red fruits, grapefruit citrusy, slightly toasted malts, American amber ale yeast, red apples and peppermint. Dry and bitter aftertaste.
Medium body with perfect carbonation.
Good American Amber / Red Ale with red fruits and peppermint notes.
