LiebeBier (736), RIchmond, Virginia, USA Jan 28, 2005 Flatness must be this brewers trademark. Barely a head and I pored straight into the glass. Just like the IPA, the aroma and Flavor are pretty good, but not nearly enough to overcome the flat beer.
The_Beer_God (2827), Newport News, Virginia, USA Aug 9, 2008 Bottle. Brown bodied with a small tan ring of foam. Nose is nutty, earthy, spicy hops, chocolate, soft caramel and sweet malts. Taste is chocolate covered peanuts, earthy and spicy hops, touch of caramel, and at times like a liquid Baby Ruth candy bar. Body is medium and chewy with soft, creamy carbonation tingle. Ends with more nutty and chocolaty flavors atop earthy and spicy hops and more sweet malt. nuplastikk (403), Maryland, USA Aug 3, 2008 12oz bottle. Thick ambery-brown color. Rich, creamy, with a nice chocolaty taste that lingers in the aftertaste. Sweet brown sugar aroma. Very drinkable and refreshing. This is really an excellent Brown Ale, vastly underrated. Holdwine (821), 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 (1510), 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 (546), 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.
