hellbilly (739), scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA Apr 19, 2008 thanks to bockyhorsey for bringing this one... pours a dark brown shade of orangey/amber with a thin off white ring of foam. dried herbs and a grassy hop aroma mix with toffee and dry roasted nuts. the palate is lightly sweet and caramely with a faint nutty flavor and mild grassy notes on the finish. there’s not a whole lot going on with this one. medium body with soft carbonation.
bwbeall812 (21), Brentwood, Tennessee, USA Jul 7, 2008 Bottle. Pours a reddish light brown with beige head and no lacing. Toasty nutty aroma. Very light nut brown ale with carbonated cola finish. A typical microbrew riversideAK (1444), Shoreline, Washington, USA Jul 3, 2008 Some buddies picked up a couple of bottles while on a road trip. Pours a light brownish red with a head that settles to a ring. Looks like cola. Nutty aroma with hints of sweetness. The flavor also has a little sweetness that is followed by a pleasant nutty aspect. Light, yet still somewhat flavorful. Pretty straightforward easy drinking brew. brianprentiss (375), Mountain View, California, USA Jun 28, 2008 A very tasty beer, something like Newcastle but a bit lighter. Very refreshing addition to a dinner at Guido’s in downtown Mobile. bu11zeye (3573), Frisco, Texas, USA Jun 28, 2008 (12oz. bottle) Pours a amber body with a small off-white head. Aroma of cola, toasted pecans, and caramel. Flavor of caramel malt, nuts, and toasted bread. lb4lb (1233), Austin, Texas, USA Jun 24, 2008 Updated: Jun 25, 2008Bottle courtesy of Brianj555. Thanks
Pours a clear reddish brown with a short lived fizzy beige head. Smell is nutty malt and not much else. Taste is metallic up front, followed by a thin nutty malt flavor. Easy drinking, but too thin, and not very flavorful. I didn’t find this to be a very good brown ale.
