Ale the nicest smoked amber colour with maybe a pinkish tinge under light cream foam and lace. Cherry juice, pear juice, slightly nutty. Pleasant as the day. Likely a hundred brewers have thought of this when they make an amber, thinking theirs is something like this when theirs is not. This is subtle, complex and unique. It has the sort of subtly that would make me think of Brooklyn except for the tell-tale St. Peter's lightly tangy yeast. One of the LCBO's fall releases.
Quick Note: Strong Ale, St. Peter's, Suffolk, England

St. Peter's has a great range of beers. A return visit to the Jerusalem Tavern, the London outlet of their ales, is planned. And they have a splenid concept: After tasting the ales they have available on tap, you can buy takeout bottles of the rest of the range.

Also found their stout to be most excellent...can be found at Ithaca Coffee Co. and Beers of the World in Rochester (just part of my around the state roaming..).
