Braudog (3461), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Sep 24, 2006 8 oz draft at the brewpub: Strong oak-whiskey aroma wafts from this one. Light in body, but big in flavor ... definitely whiskey, with a caramel/chocolate swirl. Flavorful! Labeir (4), Massachusetts, USA does not count Jul 14, 2005 I was really surprised by this Brown Ale...It was actually quite big. The aroma was very lively with chocolate, toffee,and surprise...hops! The flavor is layers of caramel, buscuit malt?, chocolate, and mocha. The mouthfeel was silky showing off the richness of this great ale. A tan thick head sustained almost throughout. Exceptional! Ernest (4186), Boulder, Colorado, USA Jun 1, 2005 Draught, Amicas, Salida.
Head is mostly diminishing.
Body is medium brown.
Aroma is lightly malty (cookie, nuts, caramel).
Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter.
Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter.
Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.
Trace aroma, and a really boring effect overall...and I normally like brown ales best among American brewpub offerings. Not so here. Come for the pizza, order water instead.
