Aurelius (3445) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - APR 11, 2011
A shape-shifting aroma -- when I first opened the beer it smelled like roast over Kolsch. As it was poured and warmed, it became slightly sweet, cocoa-ish and a little perfumed. Clear, medium-light brown. Bad label. Fizzy, a little metallic, some pencil shavings in there, not sweet at all, light roast. Mild bittering. Light body. Light roast finish with just a little bitterness. Not a huge fan. ABC Liquors, Betton Hills.

Fratto (2328) - Arlington, Texas, USA - APR 8, 2011
Bottle from the Majestic on Pioneer. Reddish brown pour with a big off-white head. Aroma is dry chocolate, nuts, and bready malt. Taste is very nutty, kinda caramel, and watery.

jzzbassman (1362) - New Albany, Mississippi, USA - APR 7, 2011
On tap at the Blue Canoe in Tupelo. Pours a dark bown with a one finger cream head. Aroma is malty, with some brown sugar and chocolate. Toffee and malt, uncomplicated and pleasant.

PorterPounder (4611) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - APR 5, 2011
Tallahassee, Fl - Publix Supermarket - Centerville Rd.- 12 oz bottle. Pours a nice dark coper-amber with an initial frothy off-white head that leaves a nice ring around the glass. Aroma is pretty much neutral with just a hint of nuts if you try really hard. Flavor is mild, but pleasant, some nuttiness, a hint of chocolate and just a slight hint of bitterness. Mouthfeel is thick enough with a bit of creaminess. Decent.

zebracakes (1339) - Washington DC, USA - APR 5, 2011
Bottle. Pours nearly flat, hazy orange brown. Aroma is malt and caramel. There’s virtually no carbonation in this beer. I opened up another bottle just to make sure it wasn’t a bad cap. Minimal carbonation in the other beer too. The flavor is malty and not horrible, but the lack of carbonation is a bit of a turn off.

fidelis83 (1589) - Clinton, Iowa, USA - APR 4, 2011
Pours a light caramel brown with a thin, light beige head. Aroma is a little on the weak side, but chocolate, light toasted nuts and planty hops are present. Flavor is chocolate, skin-on toasted nuts, a little roast, planty hops and light mineral notes. Palate is light and dry. A little more thin and dry than I would like a nutty brown ale to be, also not too substantial on the malt side. Not bad though.
