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...

Jun 21, 2009 A beer, my girlfriend has always loved, and not that I wasn’t trying everything they had, but I knew I had to have this. Pours blackish with a 1 finger tan head. Nose is deep malty. Taste has some nice choconess, syrupy and pretty decent.

Mar 23, 2009 Tap at the brewpub. Smells like burnt rubber tires, or maybe burnt out clutch. Yuck. Rubbery, chemical flavor, with a mild chocolate. Low carbonation, a bit nutty in the finish. A bit of an odd-ball beer. I appreciate the effort, I guess.

Mar 18, 2009 Dark brown beer with a thin tan head. Aroma is lightly phenolic as well. A bit of earthy chocolate in the nose. Malty sweetness with more caramel obvious through the middle. Slightly astringent toward the back of the palate. The body is initially full-bodied, but it seems to thin the more of it you drink. It’s okay, but it’s no brown ale....

Mar 6, 2009 Draft. Pours deep brown with a thin beige head. Light sweet malt aroma with a hint of roast. The flavor has a nice sweet/roasted malt balance with a hint of hops in the finish.

Feb 21, 2009 Tap at the brewpub. Aroma of smoke, sweet malt, coffee. Flavor has a hint of chocolate, more smoke, sweet malt. A touch sweet, but not disastrously so.

Jan 10, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. Pours black with a pretty thick tan head. Aroma of sweet malt. Flavor of crystal malt, roasted malt. Sessionable, certainly, but this is TOO sweet (a common theme among Nodding Head beers it seems...).

Jan 6, 2009 Pretty good for a brown. Simple, clean, and easy to drink. I’m really impressed by how flawless Nodding Heads brews are, meaning no off-flavors in sight. I could drink this all night.
