Holdwine (816), Beertimore, Maryland, USA Jun 7, 2008 Looks great with an obvious sweet nutty nose. Drinks easily and has a very pleasant roasted character. Sweet malt and biscuits. Nice effort. Linus_Stick (1481), Moon Township, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 6, 2008 Wow...this is one of the best brown ales I’ve ever had. Nice nutty aroma with hints of raisin and wine. Pour was a nice (you guessed it) deep brown with a 2 finger almost tan head. Taste was very nutty and delicious. Maple, caramel malt and wine with a nice thin mouthfeel. Not sticky or thick. Delicious. Optigon (535), Bloomington, Indiana, USA May 20, 2008 Pours brown with a fine, moderate head. Aroma is caramel and hops. Sweet, malty flavor with a mild hop bitterness. Hudspart (291), Hudsonville, Michigan, USA May 18, 2008 Bottle: Not bad, but not great brown ale. Pours brown with a small head. Slight aroma of nuts and flavor of same. Finish is somewhat acidic. Cobra (1022), In the snake pit, Maryland, USA May 14, 2008 12 oz. brown bottle. Old sample. Bottled on 1/8/07, according to their website. Why are they selling old stock to the public, and why won’t they answer email inquiries?
Lazy bastards.
BTW, this beer is a certified drain pour.
Nasty, chalky, and way, way past it’s prime.
