Brown. Slight opaquacity. Good viscosity. Minimal uniquity. Certainly enjoyable and drinkable, yet lacks character. Not a whole lot better than Newcastle. Maybe it’s better on tap...

What a surprise, pours a BROWN color! Head is beige colored. Aroma is nutty and sweet as expected. Flavor is also nutty and a tad sweet wtih some good malt, and maybe even a touch of vanilla. Not bad, not amazing either.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a small tan head. The aroma is light and sweet with a hint of roast and chocolate. Palate has medium body and above average carbonation. Flavor has malt, chocolate, nuts, caramel, with the malt dominating, but all understated. Flavors quickly vanish with some light hops on the finish. There’s nothing particularly surprising in the flavor, but this is pleasant and easy to drink.

clear dark brown in color under a small, creamy tan head. somewhat weak aroma of caramel and brown sugar. flavors of roasted malt with brown sugar, caramel, and toasted nuts. light floral hoppy finish. light bodied. an enjoyable brown but not amazing.
