Oct 16, 2009 It seems to me that Sam Adams beers do mild very well. Dry, refreshing, a bit sour, no chalkiness, nice mild hoppiness, caramel, nutty, toasty, musty, a bit of fruitiness hidden in there. Good, easy to drink, which I think is a quality that is frequently missing from darker beers (not that a sipper beer is bad, but here, quaffability is a definite plus)

Oct 15, 2009 As with a lot of BBC beers not over the top and very drinkable and well made. This one has really good flavor. Could be a touch fuller, rounder. Caramely, toasty and slightly musty. Dry finish.

Oct 15, 2009 Bottle. Pours brown with creamy white head. Aroma of malt and hops. As far as brown ales go this one is a little more on the hopy side. Not a bad offering, but not as strong a some other browns.

Oct 14, 2009 Pours a mahogany color with a thin head - aroma of malt, caramel, toffee and sugar. Flavor is malty with caramel, faint nuttiness and sweetess. Moderate carbonation as expected in a brown ale. This one won’t move the top of the list of favorite Sam Adams brews though - adequate at best.
