Brown pour average size tan head. Nutty, malty aroma. Very nice and malty without much bitterness

Fairly thick with a medium tan head and dark drown body. I love the malty/sweet finish and no bitterness. Nice amount of spice in there to make it a good brown ale. This is a smooth beer! If you like Newcastle, then give this one a try, you’ll probably like it as well."

Pours a darker amber with basically no head. Nose is woody with a touch of caramel and just a touch of dust. Flavor is a bit woody with sweet tones. Robust and thick with flavor. Off the flavor alone I would say this is worth trying. Feel is nice on the liquid and good with the carbonation too. Extremely drinkable. Off the flavor alone, worth going for. This on-tap might be interesting. On cask...who knows.

Small Foamy head that disappeared. Malty aroma. Brown Color. Malty caramel taste. This is a very smooth balanced beer.

Bottle. Pours clear coppery amber with a fluffy off-white head. Floral, nutty aroma. Light body and medium carbonation. Just a dash of brown sugar in the taste, not a lot else going on. Crisp finish. Probably a great beer to wash down whatever you’re eating.
