A very light shade of brown, more amber than brown really. One of the palest brown ales I’ve ever had. A very small 1/2 inche white head formed at the top intially but dissipated quickly away. Virtually no lacing.
It was hard to smell much of anything, slight earthy scent, maybe a little nutty.
The taste was much more pronounced than the scent, very nutty and a caramel malt.
A bit watery in the mouth, goes down like water. It’s been said before, but I’ll reinforce the view, it tastes very similar to Newcastle Brown, save it’s a bit easier to drink and a bit more flavourful.

Jun 27, 2008 Fairly fruity aroma with little in the way of caramel. Amber in appearance with a nice white head. Funky fruity yeast combines with slight caramel apples and light toffee. incredibly boring.

Jun 22, 2008 Pours brown. The nose has a hint of caramel and nuts. Caramel and nuts seem to be the only thing that stands out. The finish is a little on the dry side.

Jun 8, 2008 Brown beer with off-white head. Woody and caramel aromas are present. Tastes fairly simple, dry toffee flavor. Quick finish, nothing too impressive.

Jun 3, 2008 I liked this brown ale for it has an interesting dry aftertaste that makes one want a little more of the light coffee and nut flavors that come out. It was easy to drink and to put away.

May 30, 2008 Pours a clear brown colour with a soft white head. Pleasent nutty characteristic. Roasted malt flavors preceded by a soft caramel-honey aroma. overall pretty tastey.
