Nov 23, 2009 Bottle ( 12oz ). Clear copper with an average fizzy-foamy off-white head. Smells like cocoa powder, roast chestnuts and slightly burnt brown sugar - tastes the same, maybe a tad grassy. Watery body, modest carbonation, a quick finish with a dry cocoa/woody linger. Simple, not too syrupy, thank goodness.

Nov 12, 2009 Location: 12 oz bottle from Gilly’s, 11/12/09
Aroma: The nose on this one is sweet malts, some nuts, dark fruits, and chocolate
Appearance: A clear dark copper-red color, actually, the descriptions right, mahogany describes it better, minimal head, some lace
Flavor: The flavor is like the nose with more emphasis on the toasted malts and a little more bitterness
Palate: This is a medium bodied brew with a decent mouthfeel, and quite a bit of carbonation
Overall Impression:
I actually thought this one was pretty solid, and it appears to be just a bit underrated here in my opinion. I’d buy this one again, it drinks pretty nicely.

May 5, 2009 My bottle (12oz) shared with garthicus, jerc & mabel. Pours a slightly hazy deep orange-amber with an average size off-white head. Mild aroma of caramel malt, nuts and some fruit. Flavour’s malty and nutty with a light bitterness and what I think is alcohol in the finish. Average bodied. It’s fine, I found it just O.K.

Apr 27, 2009 On tap at Novare Res in Portland, ME. Pours a dark brown with a decent tan head that settles down quickly leaving spotty lacing. Nose is roasted malt, toasted nuts, some brown sugar and caramel. Flavor is too watery with slight molasses, roasted chestnuts, caramel malt. Too much carbonation. Not offensive but not great.
