0.8 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 2/20
12 fl oz bottle via my bro, served cold in a tulip glass.
App.: Clear amber (WTF?) with a thin off-white head.
Aroma: Mold, dirt, infection, organic acids, slight barf.
Palate: Medium body with moderate effervescence.
Flav.: Very mouldy and dirty, vegetal, awful.
I’m not even going to swallow a small mouthful.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a clear dark amber under a tall off-white head.
The aroma is lots of caramel along with some nuts.
The flavor is malty and sweet with a nutty finish.
Not bad, a little on the sweet side. A good one for those who dislike any form of hop flavor or aroma.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Sample at the Turkey Creek location. Clear amber to brown color with a thin beige head. Nutty and caramelly malt nose with a bit of sweetness and earthy hops. Caramel and nut flavor with a slight earthy hop edge before a sweet malt finish. Pretty solid brown ale and one of the better brews I’ve had from these guys.

It says something if they have to tell you in the description to look for a "touch of roastedness in the background." Roasted flavor tastes unnatural. Caramel flavor, sweet malts, not too full flavored.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Okay, aroma is caramel taste is caramel sweet after taste lingering amber color, okay but taste is like an aged oak brandy, okay but not again. Not a good represent of an English brown ale

On Tap at Copper Cellar, Knoxville. Pours dark red with a white head and a lot of carbonation. Aroma is of cherry fruit and caramel malt. Medium, smooth body. Taste is caramel malt, cherry fruit and hints of hops. Nice session brew.

I really wanted to like this beer. It was too bland and a bit too sweet. Almost a watered down feel to it.
