Amber pour into off white frothy head that dissipates into heavy lacings around the glass. Carbonated bubbles rise from the bottom of the glass into a ring of foam around the edge and a swirling pool in the center of the glass. Aroma of roasted caramel malt and walnut husk. Initial flavor of sweet malt, toasted walnut fading into a slighlty bitter hoppy finish that has a lingering almost buttery feel.

Roasted caramel malt aroma with some florals. Pours a root beer/cola color with a tan/biege head that dissipated and could not see any sediment with moderate action. Bready caramel malt bitter almost burnt taste with orange and grapefruit flavored hops in the background. Medium bodied, watery/resinous feel, with lively soft carbonation and a slight hint of astringency. I’ve been reviewing a lot of USA and German beers why not some British beers? This is a session type of Brown ale that has some Bitter character that is not overwhelmingly astringent.

Sample from beer tasting @ BevMo! Mission Valley. Poured a nice dark coffee color with a hoppy aroma. Cream colored head with lacing has a nice finishing palate. Very nice beer tasting of coffee and caramel with a nutty finish.

Pours a dark ruby with a light tan head. Sweet caramel malt aroma. Very malty beer, cross between sweet caramel and nutty flavours with a slight bitter chocolate taste. smooth dry finish.

had a bottle I pcked up on Bald Head Island. Modest head brown amber color with mellow roasted malt flavors and only a hint of hops. it makes a nice easy drink, not really too warm but finishes well. Not thin like some Nut browns

1/14/09 From the bottle. Aroma is a toffee and diacetyl blend with light roast. Appearance is clear copper with a well maintained white head. Flavor is slightly sour with a roast caramel maltiness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a low carb texture. Overall, an ideal for the style.

Bottle. Light to moderate malt notes of toasted and nutty, light herbs and dough for the hops and yeast with hints of date and brown sugar. Head is small, frothy, off white with fair lacing and is mostly diminishing. Color is sparkling clear medium brown. Flavor is lightly sweet and acidic, and finishes moderately bitter with a touch of saltiness. Palate is light to medium, between watery and oily, and has a lively carbonation. A good, well rounded and easy drinking beer.

Bottle. Very even beer, with smooth palate and nice blend of hops and malts. Creamy head and body. Very tasty.
