3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Nice session brew. Clear brown with a moderate tan head. Aroma of chocolate and roasted malts. Taste is slightly thin, but malty and mildly sweet. Medium body.

Now this is a good brown ale to sink your taste buds into! Very robust in flavor and not heavy on the belly! Easy to drink would pair up well with some hearty smoked meats at the BBQ. This one had a nice smooth texture to it but it was also a little bit ‘chewy’ (which is a plus for me). This would be a great starter brew for those that haven’t tried any in the brown ale style of brews!
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear deep orange amber with a gray head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has notes of grain and bread with a bit of backing toffee. Flavor is similar with lots of malts, mainly bread and toffee, a hint of earthiness present.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Aroma is toast malt with hint of sugar. Pours rich copper colored (not really brown) with pillow head. Taste is well balanced, but fairly constrained. Nice balance of malt and hops, but needs a little more punch to take it to the next level.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottled. Poured medium amber with an easily-resuscitated off-white head. The aroma picked up soured cola and nutty malts, with a touch of metallic citrus around.. seemed off. The flavor found about the same stuff.. sour malts with metallic zing around.. dry, tacky finish. Light-medium bodied and fairly sharp on the palate.. not a good feel or flow. I didn’t care for this.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours deep amber with a small but frothy light tan head. Sweet malty aroma with hints of caramel and chocolate. Flavor is a bit less sweet and a bit more hop bitterness and citrus, though still predominantly malt.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Courtesy of markwise. Pours amber with gold hues and off white head. The aroma is sweet with malts and some caramel malts to go along with a bit of roasted malts too. The taste is similar with caramel malts, a dash of molasses and then heading into roasted malts. The flavors do not really come together all that well.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 8/20
Thanks to AttitudeBrew for this one in trade. Pours clear orange-brown with an off-white head. Nose is earth, some light fruit, some spice, and a peanut shells earthiness. Flavor is the same with some sweetness and some fruit. Light-bodied and ok overall. This one is kind of a slacker- it could be so much more.
