The name is fitting because it pours the shade of a walnut and has a nutty aroma. The tastes are more subtle of roasted malt and almond. Slightly watery. I expected a lingering almond flavor, but it didn’t stick, which is unfortunate.

Pours dark clear chestnut brown that’s on the bronze side with a dense beige head. The aroma is very nutty with heavy bread, toasty malt, no noticeable hops, moderate sweetness and some chewy toffee. Medium smooth body at first then it gets watery and has semi-sharp carbonation. The flavor begins with the aroma traits, but they leave quickly. On the finish there is some sweetness, apple, nectar fruits along with astringency and metallic traits. This is not taste very good to me.

Bottle. Dark brown body with a tan head. Some light toasted malt character, light almond nuttiness with hints of coffee and caramel tawny notes. A decent brown ale.

0.55 l bottle my parents brought from London. It poured brown, a bit reddish body with medium sized ocher head. Nice roasted malt in its aroma. Flavor has got it as well, with some caramel version, pleasant but unfortunately thin bodied. Coffee, caramel and some spices in the finish, Very nice, but simple and watery...that would be it about this beer.

0.55l bottle courtesy of and shared with heavy (thanks!)
Poured a brown body with a small off white head. Odd, slightly nutty malty nose with some notes of caramel. Ok, kinda pleasasnt sweetish nutty maltiness, some milk caramell, light bitterness near the end, slightly acidic. Some coffee. Light and balanced, nothing too flashy but ok, if just "ok".

12oz bottle. Pours clear brown with small tan head that does not stick around for long. Aroma is caramel, nutty and some dark fruits. Flavor is nutty with caramel and some earthy flavors. Some mild sweetness with full nut flavor. Palate a little on the light side. Very clean finish with little complexity. Nothing special here.

550 ml bottle poured a clear reddish amber with a lasting amber head. Aromas of carmel, earthiness, light cocoa and light nut. Palate was light bodied and smooth. Flavors of carmel, light cocoa and a hint of nuts with a smooth malty finish. Overall a ho-hum beer.
