starfireming (309), Richmond, Virginia, USA Mar 15, 2007 Smells like toad. Well, toad with a good malt going. Ever-so-slightly cloudy golden brown body, off white head. Full flavour, light but rich mouthfeel. I’m loving the malt here. Much better than the name.
can8ianben (668), Pasadena, California, USA Nov 27, 2008 Dark and smoky, but light enough that it wasn’t a beer that made me feel heavy. Much darker than a typical brown ale, but similar in body and mouthfeel. Black. Strykzone (1070), Wood River, Illinois, USA Nov 15, 2008 Almost black pour with a short lived head. Red highlights. Aroma is full of malt, nuts, milk, unmalted barley. The barley gives a sorghum molasses flavor. Faint hop presence. Lactic acid. Mild effervescence. Smokey. Medium bodied. Not bad at all. fidel (310), Livermore, California, USA Oct 20, 2008 Updated: Oct 28, 2008Dark brown, smooth, sweet roasted malts, molasses, nutty, little coffee, slight hop. tmongoose (35), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Oct 20, 2008 a dark ale that poured to a nice head. it quickly dissapated. for me this is a beer that i could drink on a regular basis. its not heavy at all, refreshing and has a good roasted malt flavor. HonkeyBra (509), Lemont, Illinois, USA Oct 18, 2008 While I was telling my Aunt about my beer hobby, she pulled this out of the fridge for me. She said my uncls didn’t like dark beers and this was a bit too dark for her. Dark brown pour, roasty aroma. Flavor was sweet and roasty, I almost thought this was a thin porter. Pretty decent, though. Especially for a random contract brew.
