Draft. A deep red beer with a lazing brown head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel as well as lighter notes of nuts - the beer was served very cold, so the aroma had a hard time to unfold. The flavor is sweet wtih notes of malt, caramel, and nuts, leading to a lightly bitter finish.

On tap. Clear deep reddish brown with an off-white head. Aroma of nuts and roasted malt. Medium body, sweetish roasted malt and burned caramel. Lightly bitter finish. 130709

From tap at the Elk Grove location. Pours clear deep amber with a small lacing and white head. Aroma is roasted malty and nutty. Solid caramelish, a bit on the sweet side. Lingering roasted and nutty flavoured into the finish. Light bitterness.

Sampled draught at BJ’s, Burbank, CA.
Nut brown. Roasty, lemony and sweet with very cleanmouthfeel. Fizzy lightly smokey and somewhat nutty. Perfectly similar to a fizzier Newkie Brown. That’s what they were shooting for, wasn’t it?

Light chestnut colour. Nutty, cocoa-like aroma. Fairly sweet flavour with hazelnuts and vanilla. Sweet, thick icing sugar body with nut skins. A bit of astringency in the back. Not mailed in boring, but I didn’t go for what they were going for.
