This bottled brew poured a medium sized head of foamy finely sized tan colored long lasting bubbles that left behind a transparent typically carbonated cola brown colored body. The aroma was an almost nonexistent light brown malty one. The mouth feel was light and crisp with a mild tingliness from start to its mild brown malt finish. The flavor contained mild brown noted mixed with some hops and a bit of nuttiness.

Date: December 26, 2011 Mode: Bottle Source: Lakeville Galaxie Description: Semi-opaque brown pour with some head and lacing. Nutty and malt aroma. Taste is roasted malt. Kind of thin and some carbonation.

Dark amber, almost no head, but reasonable lace. The problem is in the taste - There is sone caramel malt, but little else except mild carbonation to balance. Perhaps this bottle is going south; no skunkiness though. For me, a very uninteresting quaff.

Aroma is faint, but I can pick up the chocolate malt. The color is dark brown with a thin tan head.Taste is interesting - strong malt up front then finishing with a roasted something, maybe the chocolate, but it comes across more like coffee. There is a little sweetness in the finish too. Not bad.

Decent, but not a standout among browns as it’s fairly one dimensional and doesn’t feature much flavor beyond a lightly sweet roastiness.

Bottle- Pours a clear deep mahogany color with a small tan head and some lacing. Mild aroma of roasted nuts and caramel with a hint of sweetness. Roasted nut and caramel. There is a mild bitterness and a dry finish. Fairly light body, quite smooth with a bit too much carbination. Nice beer for a quiet evening. I was hoping for a bit more character.

A dark brown pour with a tan head. It has a roasted malt aroma with dark chocolate. The light body has a slightly creamy texture with lively carbonation. The taste is mildly bitter with a dry-roast finish.

Tap. Mostly clear brown amber pour with a nice foamy off white head. Nose is okay - some nut and malt. Medium thin palate. Taste is pretty simple with some caramel malt. A little boring.

Picked this up in Wisconsin while I was visiting my buddy Jayson2425. Like many of the other Point brews, this one falls short of the honey beer. Chocolaty, caramel aroma. Decent taste but nothing to write home about.

Caramel chocolate dirt. This is just about as generic and undeveloped of a beer as you will find.
