Pipper (226), Ohio, USA Nov 9, 2009 Poured into glass from bomber. Dark brown ruby semi-opaque, no head but off-tan ring. Kind of a weird skunky aroma but. The taste is a little watered down but some of the hazelnut comes through, smooth aftertaste, a little bubbly mouth feel. Biggs88 (14), Philadelphia, USA Nov 9, 2009 I had this beer under it’s new name, Moroimoto HazelNut Brown Ale. (Same beer)
Aroma: Extremely enjoyable. Very nutty and sweet. The aroma is very basic. You know with out a doubt your in for a great beer.
Appearance: deep, rich brown. Clear and vivid.
Flavor: This is it. This beer EXPLODES in the flavor department. Hazelnut is not an undertone. Hazelnut is the main act in this brew. Undertones include malt, coffee, toffee, maple, brown suger, pecan, walnut, and chocolate(almost like chocolate syrup).
Palate: Very thin, but enjoyable. I would not want it any other way.
Overall Impression: This is my favorite beer. If I had the cash, this is all I would drink. I go thru about four large bottles a week. It is so damn tasty. Please! If you like nutty ales, TRY THIS and PM me about it. I really want to see what you have to say! I hope this brew blows you away like it did to me. TheGent (144), , Massachusetts, USA Nov 6, 2009 A clear brown color with lots of bubbles clinging to the glass and a thick head lends this beer a cream soda appearance. The smell was of course hazelnut but with some vanilla that combined with some malt to make a breakfast cereal kind of aroma. The taste is a bit nutty but with some classic malt and a little woodiness to. mouth feel is on the thin side but that is probably to help keep this brew seeming like hazel nut syrup. TheDutchman (18), Louisiana, USA Nov 3, 2009 Pours a deep brown amber with a decent, beige head. Smells like caramel, toffee and are you ready for this? Hazelnut. Great nutty caramel flavor. I love Brown Ales and this is definitly one of my favorites. 09maso3 (69), vancouver, British Columbia, Canada 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. JulienHuxley (166), Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, Canada 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. DeadGirl (192), West Palm Beach, Florida, USA 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. Barrios (852), Nashville, Tennessee, USA 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.
