BEERGUY007 (184), Scotia, New York, USA Dec 18, 2007 Old brown dog, what a nice brown ale. Great color, great malty flavor, I love malt. 12 oz bottle, brown color, smells of malts. Get it if you can, good beer from a good brewer.
maugus4ever (59), Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA Nov 21, 2008 Pours a deep reddish brown with a tan head. Sweet and malty aroma. Well-balanced flavor that has a decent hop character that I wasn’t used to seeing in brown ales. I liked it. epf33 (183), Fairfax, Virginia, USA Nov 1, 2008 strong hops make for a full body, i don’t know why they call it a ’brown’ ale though emacgee (1186), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Oct 25, 2008 Poured a dark copper reddish brown with a one finger frothy yellowish tan head. The nose was sweet and malty, caramel, earthy malt, not much hop character. The flavor was malty, sweet, definitely residual sugars, still not picking up much hop character. Caramel malt flavor for sure, pretty sweet, definitely in need of that balance it says it has. djones (95), Michigan, USA Oct 25, 2008 Poors a deep amber red, with a hint of brown. could nearly pass for a red wine in color. Smooth feel with a sweetness that is well balanced with a hoppy bitterness. Roasted malt, caramel, and a hint of chocolate maybe. Nice mixture of flavors leads to an enjoyable brew. basewars (53), New York, USA Oct 24, 2008 Pours translucent brown with dark head. Light palate. Caramel and some hops. Not a ton of flavor but a good session.
