Jine (857), Nutley, New Jersey, USA Oct 12, 2004 Agreeing with previous ratings in that I wasn’t expecting this to be as good as it was. Pretty cheap (as far as craft brews go) and pretty good
SuperDave70 (766), Arizona, USA Sep 4, 2008 Dark brown pour with a thick foamy tan head. Aroma of burnt malt, molasses and funky yeast. Flavor wasn’t nearly as interesting. The burnt malt seems to overpower everything else. A bit thin on the palate. Not too impressive. ucusty (1062), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Sep 4, 2008 Thin dark pour with a fluffy khaki colored head. Yeast, roast, and maple on the nose. Roast, coffee, and chocolate. Unbalanced nbutler11 (154), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Aug 27, 2008 Pours a watery black from the bottle with an almost fizzy tan head. Yeast and faint molasses on the nose with flavors of dark cocoa, toasted malts, and copper in the taste. Appears to be a stout, but tastes very much like an unbalanced brown. Biddle_Brau (135), Midland Park, New Jersey, USA Aug 26, 2008 Dark with ruby highlights and thin white head hardly a hint of aroma. Slight burnt roastiness/coffee thin palate (seems typical of the Abita’s I’ve had). Not sure if this wants to be a stout or dark lager with the roasiness but it’s not what I’d expect from a brown, either. kseecs16 (537), Westmont, Illinois, USA Aug 26, 2008 Bottle. Poured a clear dark reddish brown with a big foamy tan head. Aroma was rich malt, nutty with notes of chocolate and caramel. Flavor is dry nutty roasted malts with a hint of sweetness. Creamy feel with a medium body.
