thedm (3405), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Sep 20, 2003 This rating was from the Hop In The City event where brews from the previous year were sampled (5 oz) by the attendees from kegs. THis brew poured a medium sized head of fine to large sized off-white colored long lasting bubbles that left behind a semi-transparent dark brown colored body. The aroma was malty and the mouthfeel was smooth with a slight bite to it. Its flavor was a typical malt hop one. TAR (1998), Boulder Co., Colorado, USA Jan 21, 2002 This is the third time I have entered ths damn beer into the system. Please forgive me. I am not trying to boost my rating count, I am just an idiot, that’s all. A very well-done Brown. Very similar to Hex Nut on cask, though not nearly as nutty. Quaffable and delicious. iwantalambic (1356), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Sep 21, 2003 Hop in the City '03: Golden brown orange. Sweet malty aroma with some orange candy and hops. Overly sweet maltiness, missing the deep roasted nuts of a great Brown, but a strong finish keeps this one very drinkable. kwoeltje (1199), Manchester, Missouri, USA Jul 30, 2005 (cask conditioned at the Tap Room) Lovely deep chocolate brown with full light tan head. Left great lace on the glass. Aroma of slightly sweet malt. Flavor is malt, hints of caramel and nut. Not too sweet. A whisper of hops in the finish. Full mouth feel. Excellent. desurfer (1030), Pinellas Park, Florida, USA Aug 11, 2005 Very dark body, no head. Sweet, malty and nutty, also bitter. Not too bad, but I know I’m biased and don’t like brown ales to begin with.
