Feb 18, 2008 Fantastic beer, one of my favorites. The hazelnut flavor is just delicious without being overpowering. Could be the best of the Rogues.

Feb 17, 2008 Bottle, nice dark brown color. Big head, three fingers. It slowly disappeared but it was a creamy color. I can smell the hazleut a little bit. Flavor of malt and hazlenut, some other spices are thrown in as well. Taste like some chocolate also (cocco powder). This beer was good but nothing extraordinary.

Feb 13, 2008 750ml bottle. Dark brown with a hint of red hue resembling a deep stained wood. Nose if chocolate and malts. Although pleasant i didn’t pick up on much hazel in the nose. Taste is very nice, a bit smoky with earthy malts, cocoa powder, and chestnuts. Smooth with a bit dry finish. Very well done brown ale, highly drinkable.

Feb 10, 2008 Updated: Mar 1, 2008Nutty brown amber color with very thin brown head. Aroma of roasted nuts and alcohol. Thin bodied with hazle-nutty and wood taste. Thin and easy to drink a lot of! A tiny dry and bitter finish.

Feb 8, 2008 The aroma is sweet and milky with hints of dried fruit. The taste is sweet and nutty. The finish is smoky and woody. Its what a brown ale should be. Very drinkable and tasty.

Feb 5, 2008 22oz bottle. This was fairly decent. Better than expected for sure. Aroma of milk chocolate, hazelnut, vanilla, banana bread and grassy/slightly spicy hops. Pours a nice looking dark amber with a thin brown head leaving light spotty lacing. The Saaz are much more pronounced on the tongue and offer a nice bitter and earthy compliment to the sweeter hazelnut and chocolate notes. Some toasted malt in there as well. Creamy, medium bodied with a nice bitter and slightly sweet finish.

Feb 4, 2008 Updated: Dec 14, 2008Aroma of hazelnut, hops, chocolate and cereal malts with a bit of leathery yeast. Flavor is nutty and malty with a lot of toasted hazel nut on the back end. Appearance shows a dark amber body with a frothy light brown head that goes away. Okay lacing. Mouthfeel is creamy with soft carbonation. Pretty good!

Feb 2, 2008 Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. It was a smooth beer and well balanced. There were some flavors of hazelnut and maybe a little bit of vanilla. I thought it was a solid brown ale. Rogue always seems to make very solid beers, but nothing extraordinary.
