22 oz. bottle via BockyHorsey - Pours a clear brown color with a one and a half finger thick light tan head. Light lacing. Has a light toasted malt aroma. Flavor is light roasted malt with a tad bit of smokiness. Thin, dry palate. Light to medium body. Not bad. Thanks Bill. Wish Papago would get serious about bottling thier beer.

Mild vanilla, a little chocolate, a little hazel. Good dark schwarz-like coloring. No head. Thin. Decent flavor profile but not much coffee, nuts or fruit. Was looking for more.

This beer is a deep brown color, it is slightly hazy and in the light shows a deep ruby note to it. The head is a frothy light brown color. The nose is light with notes of caramel and perhaps a hint of nuttiness. The taste is fairly dry up front, but then moves to a note of buttery oak. Quite light on the palate. While a bit dry, there is a definite caramel sweetness here. I also get a hint of chocolate. The finish of this beer is the most notable part, actually a bit rich, creamy, with notes of woody tannins, buttery oak and a definite note of hazelnut that comes to linger and dominate the finish.

Malty aroma. Black body with off white head. Flvor seemed to be of water at first. Got some spice flavor at the end. Not bad mild beer to drink.

tap scottsdale beer fest-pours a deep brown hue with a nice off-white head. Big nutty/chocolate aroma with notes of cashews, peanuts, pinion, and hazelnut. AWESOME! some hops in there as well. Flavors are a showcase of various nuts that were all brought together with a good body. one of the best nut browns i have ever had!

This is a great beer. It originally reminded me of Rogue’s Hazelnut Brown but this was better. This beer tastes just like it smells. Its nutty taste lasts throughout the full pint. No disappointment here. Definately try it if you’re in Phoenix!

Draught @ Papago: This one is a reddish-brown color. It had a bit of an off-white head. The aroma was quite nutty, with the predominate aroma that of almonds. Medium malt body, but not overly sweet. Taste of almonds also, with some bitterness in the finish. Very Good!
