Apr 9, 2007 Maybe I should have had this beer in the fall, but it performed pretty well nevertheless. The aroma is complex with nuts, caramel, and brown sugar malt scents, and is pretty toasty too; perhaps a hint of citrus hops. The beer is a very clear, dark red/brown color with a foamy tan head. It has a sweet, nutty and sugary taste, with a touch of bitterness and is somewhat wet. The texture is not too thick, and it has good carbonation with a pretty lively and fizzy mouthfeel.

Apr 6, 2007 Bottle - Brewmasters Collection - Redish brown, not much head. This was a decent beer. Went down nicely and all, but just not much substinance to it. Could taste a little carmal/coffee, but barely. I didn’t get any aroma. No aftertaste. Just nothing to leave a memory. Overall just ok, worthy of a second try, but nothing to write home about.

Apr 6, 2007 Reddish brown pour with a off white head. A strong hops and roasted smell. Not a bitter taste at all, but lacks good and or strong flavor and after taste.

Apr 5, 2007 Bottle.
Head is initially small, frothy/fizzy, off-white, mostly diminishing.

Aroma is lightly malty (caramel, grain, husks), with notes of dirt and ash.
Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter.
Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter, husky, unclean.
Light to medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.
Amazingly bad. Very dull and dirty aroma, equally foul aftertaste.

Apr 5, 2007 Another fine brew from Sam Adams, in my opinion. Pours a clear deep brown with a tan head. Not a lot in the aroma category...maybe a little nutty. Taste is quite good. Crisp with some malts and nuts. Finishes very clean.
