RSRIZZO (1345), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Sep 16, 2007 Had on 8/18/2000. Aroma is a lightly roasted malt scent. Color is a deep golden brown with good carbonation and head. Taste is crisp and nutty. Starting with a light body that goes down with a crisp feel. Finish is a clean roasted malt flavor backed by a light bitterness. Its a nice little Brown Ale. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Name: Brown Ale

MicroBrewLover (1), Evans, Colorado, USA does not count Apr 28, 2005 this is an outstanding beer. Goes right to the top of my favorite Brown Ales. Excellent flavor. No bad aftertaste. Not too weak. Not too strong. I will buy this one regularly. Suttree (2701), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Dec 18, 2004 Clear copper, thin white head. Graham cracker aroma, pus some mild understated hints of plum. The Bride called it "Bland, but kind of a good bland", and that actually makes sense here. Hints of rasin in the finish. OK. Thanks to Springslicker for this one. SpringsLicker (2041), Tennessee, USA Nov 16, 2004 Thin brown color with a small, fleeting head.
Yeasty aroma.
Flavor is cola-like sweet carbonic acid tang, thin body. Below average. celogan (190), Oroville, California, USA Nov 28, 2003 Not too great.
Poured dark brown with minimal head which evaporated almost as fast as I could pour the bottle. Slight lacing along the way.
Aroma was just barely there. I thought it was lacking in carbonation.
Flavors which included some maltiness were very slight and a watery body. I don't like this anywhere near as much as Aspen's Red or Pale Ale. A dissappointment to say the least. I'll drink the rest of the sixpack, but won't buy another of this one microdyke (360), Portland, Oregon, USA Feb 7, 2003 Deep brown with a very light tan head. Malty caramel aromas with a nuttiness. Flavors of caramel and a little nutty. A bad metallic flavor and grainy. I would not drink this one again. whiterabbit81 (243), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Jan 20, 2003 Tastes slightly nutty with a very noticable sweet, vanilla-like flavor. It's not bad but really doesn't seem enough like a beer to me.
