3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 tmoreau (1346) - Lombard, USA - AUG 17, 2010
On tap at the brewpub and first served to a shaker with an overly cloudy appearance, and on request, repoured with a hazy, amber/brown hue, with modest off white head foam, and dots and dashes of lacing. Blame the first pour on yeast and youth. The aroma was light yeast, off course, toasted malt, nuts, caramel, and light sweetness. The flavor added some grain, moderate to low hop bitterness, and average carbonation, in a medium body. A decent brew.

Bottle thanks arkurzynski! Pours clear brown red with a quick soapy off white head that fades to a film. Aroma has a roasted malt with a little brown sugar (very faint) and slight dried fruit. Taste is oatmeal and figs with roasted malt and a subtle bitterness throughout. Palate is thin slick and finishes chalky.

It has the look of toasted sugar, and has a nice caramel taste. It was a lot lighter in body than I expected and makes for a refreshing fall beer. The flavor isn’t too potent and it’s not very filling.

1. Look - A very hazy unfiltered ale medium in color and pours a small tan head.
2. Sniff – There is a big rich chocolate aroma.
3. Sip – This brown ale is very smooth and has a nice toasty flavor.
4. Another Look – The head has dissipated and there is not lacing. There is a lot of sediment, but also a lot of bubbles.
5. Evaluate – Overall, this is tasty brown ale that has a smooth wet finish. It very easy drinking and would pair well with beef. I would recommend this ale to my family and friends.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a hazy brown color with a thin tan head. Poor head retention. Aroma of chocolate, toasted malts, caramel, floral hops and faint nutty notes. The taste is nutty notes, chocolate, citrus, caramel and a lightly hopped finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Decent beer.
