COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Celebrated as America’s Original Brown Ale, Wicked Ale’s inviting ruby-brown color, distinctive malts and aromatic Brewers Gold hops will stir up a devilish urge to let loose.

Brown in color. Kind of burnt in flavor. Caramel and burnt caramel. Sweet and blah.

Nice redish colour when poured. has an interesting flavour. Not like a usual bbrown ale. almost like a burnt or spice taste.

Rated while drinking: Pours as promised: ruby-brown. See-through though. An OK off-white head sits on top. Above-average lacing as well. Sweet malts on the nose, with an almost "burnt" aroma. Like some sort of dessert is cooking in the oven. Malty taste backed up by some nuts. Decent, but kind of fails on what I thought the mouthfeel would be. Once again, it’s drinkable because it’s watery. Not too much substance in there. But tasty.

12oz brown bottle from Ron’s in Farmington. Pours a rich translucent copper color with beautiful ruby-red highlights but with very little head. Smells roasty, biscuity, and nutty with just the slightest hint of diacetyl. Tastes roasty sweet with a good dose of biscuit and suggestions of butter flavor, though the flavors are a bit more muted than expected. Finishes fairly clean. Medium mouthfeel with a good bit of carbonation. This a pretty solid tasty beer. I’m impressed.

Pours a very reddish color. Small acidic head that dissapates quickly. Mouthfeel is very medicinal and tastes somewhat like throat spray. Not very good and the finish and body are watery. Weak!

Cybercat (1735) - Georgia, USA - SEP 15, 2007
A deep amber-brown, an inviting color. Aroma is strongly malty with some alcohol nip. Flavor is surprisingly hoppy considering the aroma, not complex but very refreshing. It feels tingly and lively on the tongue and has an edgy bite to it.

33 cl bottle, Fargo. Off brown, amber colour, faint malt and pronounced hop aroma.Tastes slightly too caramel like, but certainly drinkable. Nice bitter finish.

Sweet, but in a cloying way.. a slightly odd aftertaste. A below average ale.. kind of thin.. fits the mass-produced profile I suppose..
