carruthm (357), Seattle, Washington, USA Jul 2, 2008 Reddish-brown color with an actually decent head for once on a BBC. A little twinge of honey detectable, but not much. Trademark light body and taste is merely ok.
mnurda (352), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Aug 21, 2008 bottled sample from the sampler pack. Nice tasting. Well carbonated. Good malt taste. Enjoyed this one ewestern (62), Ohio, USA Aug 17, 2008 Nice dark brown pour. Aroma was pretty much just honey. Flavor was a nice coffee honey mix. Smooth medium bodied beer with a slight bitter finish at the end. My biggest complaint with this beer is it actually seemed to get worse as it warmed up a bit. NomDeBeer (129), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Aug 11, 2008 Drinkable but uneventful I don’t see myself revisiting this. Very similar to Sam Adams’ Brown Ale. johnnyoski (20), Macomb Township, Michigan, USA Aug 10, 2008 12oz bottle: Pours a light black color with an off-white head. Nice ruby glow against the light which also reveals some particles. Sweet smell evident before even putting my nose in the glass. Honey roasted malty aroma. Nice initial sweet roasted malt taste, hints of honey and chocolate. Bitter at the end with a bit of a strange aftertaste. Nice different offering. timsilvia32 (183), born in Michigan, North Carolina, USA Aug 4, 2008 Brown/black pour. A fairly standard porter with a little honey near and at the finish. A solid medium body. The hops help finish it a bit bitter and clean. Once again not bad for being mass produced. I think some of these ratings are low just because of that fact.
