500ml Bottle: Kinda strange aroma of honey, grains, chestnuts, light yeast, slight herbs, and a tiny hint of smoke. Poured amber/brown/orange in color with a large, fizzy, tan head that greatly diminished but lasted throughout. Cloudy. Sparkling. Full of small and medium-sized particles throughout. Flavor is medium sweet and very complex. Tastes of honey, caramel, chestnuts, light mouthwash/medicine, light mint, slight yeast, slight wood, light bamburg wood, light smoke, and a hint of malts. Medium body. Tingly, then dry texture. Average to lively carbonation. Sweet, medicinal, chestnut, honey, and caramel finish is dry.

Pours caramel brown with no head. Nose is a bit smokey with leather, nuts and earth. The flavor is the same with a dry finish and medium full mouthfeel.

The aroma is actually like a smoke beer with chestnuts, candy sugar, and malt. The appearance is deep amber with a persistent foamy head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. The aftertaste is medicinal. Overall its not too good.

Pours to a dark chestnut colored body with a tall foamy light tan head. The aroma is very mead like and full of honey. Smoke like a rauchmalt. The flavor has a little butter and honey and sweet bready thing going on. Chestnuts are light. The palate is really buttery and medium bodied.

Dark brown "nutty" looking ale with some liveliness, fairly decent white mantle of foam but more acid than sticky overall. Very smokey tasting, surprisingly so from the description, the chestnuts were obviously roasted! Still. intersting and enjoyable small production artisan ale....

Cloudy deep brown in color. Aroma of chestnut and caramel. Flavor is sweet and nutty. Full-bodied and very nice.
