On tap at the steakhouse. Pours out a moderate hue of brown with a two finger tan head. Aroma is of sweet malts, caramel and a little earthy nut notes. Light on the palate and served way too cold, other people were probably looking at me strange as I sat at the bar wrapping my hands around the glass to warm the beer. Notes of caramel, slight roast, little bit of earthy nutty notes.

This poured a lighter clear brown color with an off white head. Aroma was light nuts, and light caramel. Flavor was lightly roasted, nutty but very watery and bland.

ChainGangGuy (3837) - Canton, Georgia, USA - JUN 15, 2007
Appearance: Cloudy, dark brown body with a thin, fizzy off-white head. Smell: An extremely lacking aroma, with only the very faintest bit of chocolate malt. Taste: Very light malt sweetness that displays a subtle nuttiness with a faint hop bitterness on the finish. That’s all there is to this one. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body, with a light carbonation. It really owns its wateriness! Drinkability: As with the Rockets Red Ale, I see what they’re going for here; a light, refreshing beer that’s more of a caricature of the style.

kujo9 (1085) - North Ridgeville, Ohio, USA - JUL 23, 2004
Draft @ the Brew pub: Very little, thin light beige head on a coppery brown body. Malty and nutty aroma w/ some hints of roast and chocolate; very low fruitiness. Malty and ligtly roasty in the initial flavor; well balanced; some chocolate, very light fruitiness, aftertaste is malt flavored & chocolate as is the finish; some light sourness from dark grains and also starting to get the hints of metallic taste as it warms. Low carbonation, but very prickly; lighter medium body w/ a lightly dry m/f. Seems to be over carbonated like the rest, but more complex than the previous beers.

Foxbush (762) - Richmond, Virginia, USA - JUL 8, 2006
This was tasted during dinner on 7/6. The nut brown was disappointing compared to some of the other products. It was just plain dull. Nothing jumped out at you. It was a dark chocolate and had malt flavors but was jsut not special.

I tasted one called LIberty Broadway Brown at the Broadway at the Beach location. Brown, flat, orange tint. Nutty, unspectacular, and I can never come up with much to say about boring browns. Nutty covers it in 9/10 cases.

GeneralGao (3545) - Iowa City, Iowa, USA - FEB 18, 2006
Draught at the brewpub. Slightly hazy brown color with off white head. No lacing. Subtle earthy nose with a hint of caramel. Tangy without much flavor other than subtle nutty caramel notes. Extremely thin for a brown.

Way too light in body. This beer is made for rookie beer drinkers and tourists. It almost tasted watered down.
