Oct 15, 2008 pours a ruby brown with a thin tan head.
Aroma is roast malt, slightly nutty,
biscuity flavour, sweet nuttiness, some bitterness in the finish.
Not too bad actually.

Oct 13, 2008 Bottle 355 ml
Appearance: clear light brown ale with light creamy top 3-
Nose: Nutty aroma with slight brown malt accents, honey like backing.
Flavor/Palate : Medium light bodied. Brown malt with slight bitterness, thinner in middle and with watery finish. Felt plain and straight forward but with our major flaws. Average.

Oct 10, 2008 Pours black walnut shell brown with a medium beige head that lasts a while. Aroma is quite malty, bitter almost tannic nuttyness, grains, and some sweet peanut brittle. Flavor is a little washed out still heavily bent on malt. Fresh baked wheat dinner rolls, caramel, brazil nuts. FInish is pretty weak some planty malt, with a little bitter and spicy hops. Body is pretty thin.

Oct 6, 2008 (bottle - 12 oz) Nut brown color with a puffy tan head. Aroma is nutty and malty with some light sweet hints along with a touch of hop bitterness and some biscuit. Flavor is malty at the beginning with a light nutty note, a bready middle, and a watery and lightly bitter finish. A bit watery.

Oct 6, 2008 12 oz bottle poured into a pint glass. Pours a dark mahogany with bright blood red highlights. Light tan head that displays typically average lace and retention. Sweet, simple aroma of toasted bread, toffee, and nuts. Rather weak flavor, tastes like malt flavored perrier. Nondescript brown maltiness with little complexity or hoppiness. Body is thin and watery. A pretty crummy attempt at the style.

Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Nice walnut color with fizzy head that fades quickly. Nice nutty, toasty malt aroma with a bit of spiced bread. Medium bodied with a nice creamy mouthfeel and a tingle of carbonation. A really decent brown ale.

Oct 2, 2008 One of the sweeter Sam Adams beers. Medium bodied, aromatic and malty. Caramelly, nutty. Low on hoppiness. Overall this isn’t too distinctive but it gets the job done. I’d rather drink a Newcastle though.
