biggcb (458), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 24, 2008 Draft - part of sampler at brewery. Pours a med-to-dark brown color with a nice creamy, off=white head. Aroma is roasted malts and a hint of semi-dark chocolate. Flavor is mostly the roasted malts, with a slight balancing with some mild hops and a little sweetness from the chocolate notes. Medium bodied. Rather drinkable. scraff (1921), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Jun 16, 2008 Cask @ NH - Dark brownish crimson, thin off white head. Roasted milk chocolate aromas warm to notes of toast and caramel. Milk chocolate flavors balance on soft toasty notes. Just a hint of bitterness rounds this out well Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A nice session ale... RblWthACoz (963), Brooklyn, New York, USA Feb 5, 2008 Pours just short of opaque. Nose is woody. Flavor is whoa! Nice and hearty. Woody character. Thick robustness that is nowhere near overdone. Slight bitter back tone. Feel is thick enough on the liquid. Has a good level of carbonation. Very drinkable. A good brown ale. If you see it, go for it. checkmatei1 (629), Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 18, 2007 Very dark brown with a thick frothy head. Aroma was that of chocolate and caramel. Smooth flavor of Chocolate, caramel, and a hint of smoke that was easy to drink. Ty5592 (1015), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 9, 2007 Roasted malt aroma. Medium body. Hints of chocolate,roasted malt,and lite caramel in the flavor. Prcaus (159), New Jersey, USA Oct 8, 2007 Draft-Nodding Head Center City Philadelphia. Dark Brown ale, came highly recommended but not a big fan. It does have a slight chocolate/earthy flavor but overall nothing overwhelming and not enjoyable to me when it was serviced lukewarm. Its still better than Monkey Knife fight... Beerdedone (1873), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 22, 2007 On tap at brewery. Pours a dark brown with a thin beigh head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee notes and some chocolate. Flavor is dark malts,nuts and some toffee with a light dry finish. NJBeerman013 (764), Trenton, New Jersey, USA Sep 11, 2007 Draft. I must be the only one in the metro area of philly that did not like the beer from this place. For a brown ale, it lacked some serious flavor. There was little in the way of toastiness, chocolate or espresso flavors that most brown ales possess.
