| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 24, 2008 12 oz. bottle courtesy of Doboy. Aroma - Brown sugar and nuts certainly quite evident, hints of spice. Appearance - Clear amber, substantial off white head tha lasts well, although lace is sparse. Flavor - Sweetness of the malts comes through initially, flavor is rounded out by a soft bitterness that has a light peppery character. Palate - Medium body, light carbonation, fairly smooth, but with a mildly syrupy character. Overall - I wasn’t expecting much from this beer, but all in all, it’s not too bad. Some sticky sweetness, but I think that is intended, and it seems to fit well for the season. tgncc (965), Bellmore, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Nov 27, 2008 The aroma is mostly malty, earthy, only a slight sign of pecans or nuts. The appearance is very attractive, a nice reddish/brown, clear, carbonation bubbles, decent off-white head, lacing on glass. The flavor is definitely pecan, nutty, some sweet malts, honey, molasses come through. The finish has a slight hop bite, starting as the beer heads for the back of the throat. Clean finish. The mouthfeel is medium thick. Nice enjoyable beer, but not a great Brown Ale by any means. Poobah (113), New Orleans, Louisiana, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 21, 2007 Nice nutty-sweet aroma. Dark amber color with thin but persistent head. Malty intro and full mouthfeel with some carbonation. There is a genuine dry and sweet nuttiness to the beer, especialy in the aftertaste. Good bitter finish as well. One of their better seasonals. flatmatt (279), Northville, Michigan, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Oct 23, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours amber with a good-sized off-white head. Toasted bread and earthy nut aromas with some caramel sweetness. Flavor is definitely the pecans and some toasty malts with slight hints of fruit. Fairly watery, not much of a finish, and unfortunately not what was promised by the rather pleasing aroma. doubleo (1194), San Diego, California, USA
