| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 12, 2007 12oz bottle poured into a shaker. This beer pours... drum roll please... brown. Yep. It has a nice head that is a tad thin but leaves nice lacing that doesn’t stick around too long. I should state right now that I’m a little sick with sinus and throat issues so the rating is hardly fair but beer, like time, waits for no man. I detect vanilla mostly and maybe a touch of molasses in the nose. The taste is almost a cross between a brown ale and a california common. I like this one quite a bit. It’s not as nutty as I’d like but it still has a meaty smooth body that hits the spot. LooseCannon (928), Norfolk, Virginia, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 4, 2007 A very pleasant aroma of nutty malts. Brown though transparent. Medium bodied. Not an easy drinking beer for me though, it has a slight skunk to the flavor. AOF (282), Naperville, Illinois, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 24, 2007 Bottle. Brownish colour with a huge mostly lasting beige head. Rich malty aroma with notes of caramel and fruits. Nice sweet taste with some bitter notes. Good beer. gpekar (225), Maryland, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 23, 2007 Poured the color of a well steeped iced tea with a tan foamy head that quickly disapperared to a thin layer. The beer had a nice malty aroma. The initial taste was a bit of citrus with just a hint of a chocolate finish. This was a very mild beer with not too much flavor. This would be perfect for those who prefer dark beers that aren’t too strong or bitter. A nice beer to have several without feeling full.
