Pours an amberish brown with a slight tan head. Aroma has some malt and nut to it along with a malthy and roasted flavor.

Delicious beer. Great aroma. ours a dark brown with a smallish head. Aroma has strong malts, some sweet cream, and definite nutty notes. Flavor is wondrous- the creaminess really comes through and makes the flavor thick, rich, and delicious, though the actual mouthfeel is much lighter on the tongue.

solid brown color, respectable tan head, some lacing. chocalte nose, airy malt. flavor of roased, smoked malt, roasted nuts (including pistachios). medium bodied, bitter, roasty finish. perhaps a bit too frizzy, but the rosted nut flavor and bitter aftertaste is fun.

I’ve never been a big fan of brown ales, but this is one of the highest rated, so I thought I’d give it a try. I have concluded that I got a bad bottle. The flavor was flat and buttery. I think this was a bad ferment.

Dark brown in color. Sweet and malty. Fairly strong in alcohol content but not too strong. Nice and nutty

Really a good beer, probably my favorite brown to date.

The first thing you notice whether you’re getting this on tap or pouring your own from a bomber is that huge smell. I grew up in a town with a lot of filbert (hazelnut) farms and this thing takes me back to my childhood with that aroma, nothing else permeates the smell. The mouthfeel is sticky and creamy and very sweet but not annoyingly so. This is the best brown ale I’ve ever had, and I am super craving one at this very second.
