nutty with an unusual play-doh aroma. Pours dark copper brown, no head. Nutty, brown sugar, sour finish. On the marketing side, that label is downright creepy. Planet of the Apes meets Caligula.

Bottle bonused in trade from rustychiles. Thanks Rusty!
Pours a nice semi hazy brown color. Smell is nutty, chocolatey, toasty malt. Taste is dark nutty malt, somewhat chocolatey, a touch of fruitiness, slight char with a noticeable hop presence and bitterness in the end. Some coffee as well. Body is light to medium with normal carbonation. Flavorful and easy drinking. Pretty good brown ale.

Bottle. Pours a clear mahogany with a 2 finger grayish tan head and nice lacing. Nose is earthy with light coffee, nuts, and chocolate malt. Taste is pretty much the same with a light coffee/chocolate milk finish. Light mouth feel. Not a bad brown - could use a bit more fullness to the body.

Bottle. Dark brown. Thin head. Nice coffee scent like opening a bag of beans. Brown malt and coffee flavour with a brown sugar finish. As you drink a bit of sourness settles in.

Wow, stumbled upon this in Wal-Mart of all places. For a dark beer this is very smooth and drinkable. A well crafted full-bodied beer. It has been a while since I have tasted a beer this good

Pours like a porter from the bottle with a trim tan headthat quickly dissapates. Plenty of dark cocoa, barley, and toasted malts in the nose that carry into the flavor alnogn with notes of vanilla and hazelnut. All the ingredients are there, but the water content in this brew is too high for my taste.

12-oz. Thanks, Bitbucket! Talk about a guy who knows how to bring back the right kind of souvenirs for his pals when he goes on a trip--Bob’s got it goin’ on.
Pours a deep, nearly opaque dark brown with a slim tannish rim. Minimal lace. Nice forward molasses and caramel, brown bread-y nose. Medium body, soft carb. The molasses, caramel, and brown bread come back for the mid-palate. Mild finish. Not a bad little brown. A bit on the dull side, but not flawed in any heinous way.
