Pours a good chestnut colour with a persistent head. Aroma of sweet malt, plums and dried fruit. Similar flavour, a fruity brown ale with a little bit of bitterness.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 8, 2008 Samuel Smith’s Nut Brown Ale was good. It was malty and nutty, and has a bitter aftertaste. tig397 (64), dearborn heights, Michigan, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Feb 5, 2008 bottle. good aroma of hops and malt. the head was very small right from the pour. great brown/amber color. this beer is dry yet has a watery after taste. very much like raisens and nuts. the more I drink Samuel Smith the more of a fan I become of this brewer. I suggest everyone try something from this brewer, they seem to know what they are doing. Defreni (999), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 4, 2008 Flaske. Flot brun ale med et pænt skumhoved. Desværre var der ikke megen karbonering hvilket gjorde den en tand for sød og lidt kvalm i smagen. Noget som humlen ikke var kraftig nok til at rette op på. AmazonMatt (284), Panama
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 28, 2008 Updated: Oct 19, 2008Pretty good beer. Not my favorite style, but this beer has no discernible flaws. Head was gone as soon as poured, liquid is a tea color. Fairly little aroma...nuts and malt. Flavor is there with nuts and graham and a bit of raisin. Decent wet (not dry finish) with pleasing mild after taste. Very approachable beer, and as I try more beers, I appreciate more and more balance and approachability without flaws. Not amazing, but sessionable, if it weren’t selling for over 2 dollars a bottle at the Riba Smith grocery store here in Panama. General66 (167), Streator, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 28, 2008 550 mL bottle shared with Illini08. Amber pour with a 1 finger width tan head that disappeared quickly. The aroma was strange at first with a very strong metallic smell. As it warmed I smelled hints of nut and malt. The taste at first was also a strange metallic flavor. It faded away as the beer warmed however. When it warmed you could taste nuts and hops. It left a slight bitter aftertaste as well. Tasty, but nothing amazing...
