| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 7, 2007 This is a world class brown ale. Pours brown, smells of fresh walnuts and brown sugar, and cures a chocoholics craving in the beer form. This beer is under-rated and should be tried again by everyone! thefederalist (226), Jonesboro, Arkansas, USA

Nice balanced aroma of hop grassiness and malt warmth. Flavor is very balanced as well with brown sugar and caramel in the malt profile. Finish is moderately dry. Somewhat sweet but not to the degree of the Rogue Hazelnut Brown. ChristianScheffel (4507), Odense, Denmark
