Oct 28, 2009 Tanslucent brown with thin white head. Sweet aroma with lots of hazelnuts and vanilla. Flavor is as you would expect, all about the malt. More hazelnut and vanilla with the addiction of licorice, butterscotch and treacle. Hazelnut has an unexpected drying effect. It is actually quite a light beer...maybe a little watery. Sweet and rich but mild and easy drinking...yum.

Oct 27, 2009 Bottle. Dark amber color, with beige head. Intense hazelnut aromas, sick heavy aromas! is there anything else? maybe some honey, butter, malts. Taste is hazelnuts, sweet malts. Low carbonation provides for a very creamy, enjoyable mouthfeel.

Oct 24, 2009 Updated: Oct 25, 2009On tap at Roxy’s (West Palm, FL): Toasted maltiness nose with an intense caramelized hazelnuttiness syrup accent that doesn’t last long. Butter, chestnut, cookie dough, and spices in the finish such as nutmeg. Drinkability: Nutty Nutella flavor, mild chocolate, malty finish. Rebuy: Again, definitely. #157 on 25102009, DG.

Oct 23, 2009 Clear copper body with a lacing beige head. Toffee, malt, and nutty aroma. Malt and nut flavors with some toffee that leads to a crisp, dry finish.

Oct 23, 2009 It pours a rich dark brown with aromas of hazelnut and malts. The malty and nutty smoothness is incredible. This beer is a treat.I highly recomend this beer very nice.

Oct 18, 2009 pours a ruby-brown color...very clear... with a thin light tan head that dissipates quickly...actually has a watery look to it. aroma is of sweet hazelnut...maybe a touch of maple syrup...earthy. flavor is very nutty and earthy...not as sweet as expected. mouthfeel is watery but finish is lingering and nutty. pretty nice overall and i like the aftertaste but the watery mouthfeel is disappointing.

Oct 18, 2009 Chocolate and hazelnut aroma’s dominate up front with notes of toffee, caramel, a touch of roastiness, with no discernable hoppy aroma.... Pours a clear brown with a minimal head, Somewhat tingly mouthfeel... Notes of hazelnut and chocolate are present in a very above average brown ale base... Lingering hazelnut flavor... The hoppiness is subtle, it cuts the maltiness just right...

Oct 15, 2009 Sadly, it fails to live up to what I had hoped. Nice, nutty aroma, but seems to be a bit watered down. Very drinkable, just wish there was more to it
