Mildly astringent nose with some mild hop and toast notes. Nuts and toffee palate with a soft mouthfeel. Clean and dry almost grainy finish.

Nice deep dark orange color with a small head. Light hop nose. A bit sour, some malt in the taste.

Light toasted malt nose, murky brown-amber, low tight head. Sweet malt base like peanut brittle. Nutty end and a little sour at times (oddly enough). Flat, thin, and not well balanced.

(draft, Barclays) Clear copper body with off-whtie head. Aroma is moderately sweet, nutty. Taste is moderately sweet, nutty, caramel, chocolate. Medium body.

The color is a little lighter than a ’standard’ brown ale. Still, light and easy to drink. A little hoppy, but not overpowering.
