On tap. Dark brown with decent head. Solid nut brown that offers light chocolate flavors, with a bit of astringent alcohol coming through that is out of place. You can do better, but I wouldn’t refuse it.

22oz bottle. Typical brown body, clear, filtered, all that, with a toast colored tan head on top. Very fresh, very full, well attenuated, rich and delicious almonds, vanilla and bread crust, with some chocolate malt and cocoa notes. Some dusty mineral notes in the finish, a bit of mold perhaps, but overall very few complaints. Good brown ales are difficult to find... but I always have been a sucker for the Full Sail house character.

Another decent offering from Full Sail. Most of their beers I’ve had I’ve enjoyed to some degree and this was no different.

The beer pours out a dark chocolately brown color, semi transparent, with a nice three finger thick tan head. The aroma starts out with some sweetness, but I swear I could pick up notes of weak whiskey. It rounds out with some subtle nutty/roasted malt combo which is nice

The flavor is backed up with a solid malt profile. It kinda gets a bit off when it warms up a bit and gets a bit too much like warmed ice tea or used tea bags. But cold to cool and it’s not bad. Not a lot of nutty character in this one, almost like a porter in training.

Slightly transparent redish dark brown, roasted malt, smokey, little chocolate, slighty nutty as well.

Pours deep amber brown with red brilliance through the light. Slight nose of sweet toasted malt with a bit of smoke. The flavor is the same, but there’s a sort of crystal malt sweetness that stands out making it too sweet.

22 oz. bottle from BevMo (Tucson) - Pours a clear brown color with a one and a half finger thick light tan head. Light lacing. Aroma is cola, toasted caramel malt, and light chocolate. Flavor is roasted and chocolate malt. Palate is kinda dry and the roastiness lingers a bit. To be honest, I didn’t get much nutiness out of this one. Medium body. A good beer.
