Pours a dark brown almost black with light brown oily head little lacing. Aromas of toasted nut, malt, toffee, chocolate. Flavors start a sweet chocolatey malt, goes into coffee and toffee, with some caramel a slight smokiness with a dry hop finish. nice aftertaste. medium body little too much carbonation but other than that a great beer more complex than expected!

brown head with chocolate and coffee aroma. medium bodied and smooth toffee taste. good beer

Pour from a 12 oz bottle. Cola colors dark brown clear brew with off white head. Aroma of dark fruit, molasses, and a hint of chocolate. Taste is great - a little sweet malt at the start, dark fruit, melding into a bit of chocolate and more lightly sweet malts with a perfect assertion of hops in the finish to keep it from being too sweet. A very solid brown ale that is very tasty.

On tap at Tibby’s New Orleans Kitchen in Winter Park, Fl. Not much of a head, what I would call medium body (not heavy like the imperial stouts). I couldn’t really smell it very well due to the surroundings, but it was wonderful to the taste! Had a great chocolatey, coffee flavor and it was a little bit lighter so you could really drink a good size pint of it with dinner and not get overly full. I think it was a really good beer!

Mahognyfärgad öl. Malt och rostade toner i doften. En bra balans mellan maltsötma, rostade toner och en nötig bitterhet. Hade jag kunnat dricka fler av.

Mörk röd kropp med ljúsbrunt skum. I aromen finns både mörk choklad och nötter. Smaken, som är riktigt fin, har mörk choklad och ingefära som dominerande toner. Detta vill jag dricka mer av.

Pours a deep reddish brown color with a medium sized head and good lacing on the glass.

The aroma is nutty and lightly roasty with some vanilla and a kind of odd dirty malt character.

The flavor is roasty and sort of green tasting with a mild bitterness and some light fruity flavors. The beer gets nuttier as it warms.

Bottle. Pour dark clear brown. Good head retention, tan, between creamy and fizzy. Medium malt, low hop.

dark reddish brown with a small beige head. rich toffee aroma. some sweetness and slight hint of alcohol. not my go to style, but a nice change of pace. pretty good.
