Pours with a two-finger light brown head that leaves a good lace. Cloudy amber color. Medium bodied and light carbonation. Slightly malty nose. Starts sweet finishes mellow and not dry. Tastes like a normal brown!! The brewery closed in 2001 and when I realized I got an old bottle I figured it would be right up there with skunk piss. On sale for $1.00 for a 12oz. bottle from Liquor Barn, Lexington, KY.

Hits the spot. Malts are nice and sweet, slight hop presence, and good, rounded body. A great drink if you can still find it.

This is as good as a brown ale can get. Full bodied, unlike other browns and hoppy too.
