Jan 9, 2009 Pours a dark, rosy brown with a thick, tan head. Good, pronounced aroma of caramel and a bit of citrus. Thick mouthfeel. Flavor is rather creamy with notes of (again) caramel and cream. Good bit of hops on the end. Pretty decent stuff

Jan 5, 2009 Bottle. Pours deep red brown with a beige head. Caramel malt aroma with a bit of toast. The body is smooth and the flavor has toasted malt with a touch of caramel sweetness. Nice.

Dec 28, 2008 Bottle, caramel almost smokey nose, toasty with some hints of chocolate, nicely balanced, good brown ale.

Dec 27, 2008 Dark mahogany brown body that shuns almost all light through it--a two-finger head that settles to a disparate brown ring... smooth, crisp aromatic scents, straightforward ale with a heavier, porterish feel... smooth--not quite oily--and slick presence that has little lingering effects--highly drinkable... withy a soda-like body, the brown element is nice, a bit porterly without the extra nut element that I prefer in a brown... pleasant and drinkable, pairs nicely with turkey and gravy... solid beer that would fit in a sampler well, even as a six-pack pickup for a party--but not in the realm of the upper class Browns...
ROGUE (621), Newark, Delaware, USA
Dec 26, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a deep mahogany color with hints of red. There is a small head that dissipates. The aroma is toasted malt, molasses, and slight hint of a sweet smell other than the molasses and esters. Taste of toasted caramel malt a touch of molasses, slightly hoppy a touch bitter on the palate. The finish does not last. Not to bad of a beer.
gerardoluna (195), Mexico
Dec 23, 2008 [Eyes] Dark brown, copper tone with delicate white tan head.
[Nouse] The aroma is a little malty, in deep the alcohol is present.
[Mouth] Taste is malty, a touch of nut, is a little sweet...aftertaste is good witha a little hop dry finish, not as rich in flavor...

Dec 7, 2008 Pretty typical, but solid brown ale. Brown color with tan head. Lots of malt. Not too strong. Like most of the Sam Adams products, it is good but not stellar.
