COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Is a beautiful deep amber/brown in color, reminiscent of the most noblest of not only American, but also Bristish Browns. The complex malty flavor comes from the 6 distinct grains that make up the grain bill. Add a Willamette hop finish, and you get a brew that compliments any occasion.

craig220 (289) - Crofton, Maryland, USA - MAR 15, 2013
Poured a clear dark amber with a MASSIVE off-white head. Aroma is caramel, nuts, grass, toast, and cereal. Taste is caramel, nuts, molasses, herbs and a bitter/dry finish. Easy drinking but nothing special.

nuplastikk (3286) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - JAN 3, 2013
Take a look at this one’s rates, it has sour/infection issues. That said, it isn’t so horrendous if you are unaware of such things. Unfiltered red--orange body. Monstrous steady infected head. I gave up after a few sips. Just off, very disappointing.

maxwelldeux (2224) - Raleigh, North Carolina, USA - SEP 23, 2012
Bottle. Pours a dark amber with a very thick head. Some odd bready notes to the nose, which I find odd. Taste is awfully malty and grainy, and is slightly harsh on the palate.

Barreras (608) - Diamond Bar, California, USA - SEP 15, 2012
Pours a copper color with aroma of sweetened malt and grain. A hint of sweet molasses with a mix of hops at first taste. A mild bitterness that disappears quickly but then leaves a mild aftertaste once swallowed. A complex flavor that tastes simple.

Beerenberger (795) - Fischer, Texas, USA - SEP 15, 2012
Aroma is malt forward. Pours a hazy brown with mostly diminishing brown head. Tastes sweet initially with a hint of sourness and a strong bitter finish. Medium bodies with ample carbonation. Overall, the sourness gets drowned by the bitterness. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

fiulijn (12179) - Malmö, DENMARK - AUG 16, 2012
Draught at the brewpub
Brown color, clear, with creamy head. Light aroma of roasted malts. Nice flavor of caramel and roasted malts, where the light sweetness is a pleasant complement; correct bitterness.
Pleasant.
