On tap at O’Niell’s. Dark brown with a spare head. Medium bodied, with a slick mouthfeel. Little bit of sweetness in the flavor. I really expected more from this, but it’s a decent brown ale.

The palate of this beer is almost perfect, it could use a little more bitterness though. I have had a couple of these in a bottle, don’t know if they draft it. good stuff

pours brown with very little head.aroma of chocolate,carmel and nuts.flavor matches the aroma.the mouthfeel of this is way to thin,watery would be a good word for it.light carbonation and a slightly dry empty finish.dont know if all the locals in montana are rating this,but its way over rated.

I grabbed a sixer of these cans up in Yellowstone. Poured it into a pint glass. It looks amazing. Brown to amber on the edges with a thick, dirty-white head. A fragrant beer. A good biscuit, yeasty, wet malt smell. A really solid smelling brown ale. The taste is initially watery, followed by a mild barley flavor. A real let down from how it looked and smelled. It feels like an average ale; moderate carbonation and normal texture. Besides the taste, this beer is fine. Too bad that taste is central to a good beer. It was not undrinkable by any means, but it tasted like a watered down brown ale. Maybe grab some for an athletic drinking event since it goes down easy.

dark brown with small head. roasty malts and slight chocolate. smooth, with a hint of nuts.

Aroma has a roasted malty, coffee, carmel scent. Very dark brownish red color clear with mild carbonation nice tan head that last awhile leaving some lacing. Taste of roasted malt with a coffee, chocolate flavor that leave a Carmel flavor on the tounge. Kind of a light brown ale was very thin. Not bad just missing some fullness.

Draft at Jerry’s. Clear, dark red-amber with decent, creamy, tan head / Mild, sweet, and thin nose of cola, roast barley, and tobacco / Light to medium body, somewhat chewy and sweet, but thin / Weak flavors of cola, toast, coffee, and chocolate / Serious body issues.

Funky-toffee-biscuity thing, also a bit of vegetable/cabbage going on. Flavors mix poorly. Don’t know why this is considered a standout brown ale - I find it off-putting.

Bottle. The nose isn’t real strong, some coffee. Pours molasses brown with a thin white head and good lacing. Flavor is coffee & roasted nuts, very easy drinking abv - awesome drinking brown ale.

This is a beer that I’ve heard about for some time and I was pretty excited to see it in my latest Beer Masons pack. It did not dissapoint, I really enjoyed the malt flavour and aroma of this beer. It is so drinkable and a perfect Autumn beer.

Good dark ale. great flavor with a good thick head. nothing extraordinary but still worth having.
