| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 14, 2009 12 oz bottle pours dark ruby with cream one fingered head. Deep raisin notes with chocolate and caramel, possibly cherry. Super sweet thick brown ale dominated by a fruity roasted brown sugar finish. Really unique brown. Almost hints of maple on the finish. Just a tad too much carb for my tongue. finol (486), Nacka (Stockholm), Sweden

Pours dark brown with a creamy tan head.
Chocolate, hops and some rosted malts. This beer is a lot better than expected,
but thats probably because I tend to underestimate the bigger american microbrewerys... sirpsycho (343), Murrysville, Pennsylvania, USA
