Droptank (79), Spring, Texas, USA Jun 21, 2008 Pretty Good. Had this while I was in NY. I thought the sting on the back end was a bit suprising though. Not my favorite, but naot bad either.
Joakgust (320), Stockholm, Sweden Jun 18, 2008 33 cl bottle - Dark brown almost opaque beer with a beige colored head. Aroma is highly malty, roasted ones, with hints of nuts. Flavor is again malty and somehwat sour or acidic, with strong notes of hops. Not a favorite brown ale really. A bit too sour. GMUcrew7 (353), Mason, Ohio, USA Jun 15, 2008 Pours a nice dark ruby/brown with a tan head. Rather subdued nose of roasted malts and nuts. The flavor is similar, roasted chocolate malts, with hints of nuts and coffee. Nice smooth and sticky palate, an overall very good beer. oreogobbler (217), Austin, Texas, USA Jun 15, 2008 Pours like a cola. Dark brown at the bottom and gets lighter and more carbonated as it moves to the top. Nice creamy head. Very elegant. Smells like toffee and coffee rolled into a chocolate hop hug. The flavor is a wonderful balance of acidity, chocolate, and caramel. Sooo tasty. Palate is a bit thin. It’s not too complex but it’s a wonderful beer to drink at anytime of the morning, mid afternoon, and evening. Haslinger (640), Syracuse, New York, USA Jun 12, 2008 Bottle, not much aroma but it was from the bottle not a pour. Some chocolate malt and a hint of christmasy spice, nutmeg or vanilla? solid I liked it Maybe buy again BeerIsMyGod (12), USA Jun 10, 2008 Poured with very little head and couldn’t get much aroma (probably too cold). However, the color was a very rich brown with a hint of orange (is that mahogany?) Taste was nice...hints of roast and chocolate. Had a nice hop overtone. Overall solid brown ale. Tranquillity (1165), Espoo, Finland Jun 10, 2008 Bottled. Aroma of soap, flowers. Brown. Quite sweet, raiisins, some vanilla? Quite long finish. Rciesla (3500), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Jun 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours a light brown body with an off white head. Aroma is malty, chocolate, sweet, bitter. Flavor is bittersweet and has a creamy texture. Just not much to it.
