6 oz sample at the brewpub. Very light chocolate-malty nose emanating from a creamy, near black, opaque oily surface with a super-creamy lasting head. Nuts, chocolate, and a smidgeon of rosemary in the flavor; could have more heft but otherwise quite good.

With a name like 'Grog' and its dark appearance I thought this beer was a Scotch Ale. Turned out to be an average brown ale with medium body, carmel undertones and a highly bitter aftertaste.

GABF '03, brown with an off-white head.Sweet,nutty and fruity.For some reason I thought this was going to be some sort of gruit ale.

Dark caramel brown. Nose is smoky and earthy. Caramel at start, ends smoky. Finishes overly smoky, slightly sweet finish. A bit overly thin.

Dark tannish brown with a nice tan head. Sweet, nutty, caramel flavors. Quite a nice session ale. Decent hoppy finish, but not enough to overpower the malts. Quite enjoyable and drinkable.

An average brown ale. Its head is its real redeeming feature, but I thought this lacked a bit on the malt backbone for a beer in this style. (on tap, Pennsylvania Microbrewers Fest 2003)
