Hand pull. Funky chicken coop overtakes the nice brown ale background. Not sure if this is a brewer or tap fault.

yayforbeer (733) - Orange Park, Florida, USA - JAN 10, 2011
12 oz bottle. Pours clear dark brown with a medium frothy beige head that drops back but lasts the entire glass. Sweet malt and chocolate aroma. Flavors of sweet malt, brown sugar, mild chocolate, light hops and a slight bitterness near the end. Not great but good enough to drink. Lightweight and sessionable.

Bottled@Man In The Moon, Stockholm. Deep copper colour with small beige head. Aroma is quite much caramel malts, some slight syrup, chocolate and quite much earthyness. Flavour is caramel malts, toffee, some syrup, mild burnt sugar as well as some slight toasted notes. Mild chocolate as well as dark fruity notes also once it warmed up a bit.

TaktikMTL (4133) - Montréal-Nord, Quebec, CANADA - AUG 24, 2010
En fût. Verre de dégustation chez Federal Jack’s (Kennebunk, ME). Arôme: Odeur de caramel avec une très légère pointe de beurre. Apparence: La couleur est brune. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Léger goût de caramel et de noix. Courte durée de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps et la texture sont mince. Faible effervescence en bouche. Légère présence de caramel en arrière goût. (Rating #3178)

Not a great beer at all, not terrible, I wouldnt buy it again. I was expecting substantially more. bland and thin, no real body or brown ale flavors. just a mildly sweet ale.

asheft (2032) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 8, 2010
[bottle] Quite diacetyl buttery aroma with some faint hazlenuts and sweet biscuity malt. Almost clear chestnut appearance under a beige, thin cover. Sweet, nutty and biscuity malt with plenty of butter and some apple-walnut bitterness. A touch of green apple sourness. Medium body, medium carbonation, slightly bitter finish.
