COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This beautiful, deep russet brew has the sweet and somewhat nutty character of Adam Avery's late (1992-2002) Chocolate Lab, for which it is named. Crystal and chocolate malts give this beer a brown sugar maltiness with hints of vanilla and nuts, while subtle hopping gives it an overall drinkability that's second to none, just like Ellie!

Pours brown with a nice tan head. Aroma is nice and malty. Taste is full of chocolate and caramel malt. This is one of the better brown ales I have had.

Pours transparent brown with minimal head. Smells roasty, but not very many strong smells. Taste like roasted malts, fruit-like sweetness, and roasted nuts, with a clean hop finish. Texture is a med-full, and after taste is a bit sweet but very clean and balanced. I like this one.

DrSilverworm (703) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JAN 30, 2012
12oz can. Hazy brown-red color, a thin light tan head. Great lace. Great chocolate aroma. Nice roasty malt base... A light body, crisp, lighter carbonation, very smooth and easy to drink - a great can-beer. Some hops evident here, a nice balance. Nice light bitter taste, very enjoyable brown ale.

12 oz bottle pours a brown color with an off white head. Aromas of roasted malt, and some citrus in the background. Medium bodied, a nice basic beer from them

vikingguy (452) - Chaska, Minnesota, USA - JAN 21, 2012
Dark brown with tall foamy off-white head. Chocolate malt on the nose. Taste is a pleasant combination of chocolate, nuts, roasted malts and vanilla. Medium body, lots of flavor and substance for such a drinkable brown ale. Definitely one of the better brown’s I’ve had.

Nice, lush aroma, dark chocolate, figs, fruit, vanilla; bit thinner than expected, but good flavor, simplistic, perfectly good sessionable brown ale.

Tap. Brown with dissipating head. Smells like brown sugar and citrus. Not to sweet, had a little toastiness. High carbonation but well blended.
