Mar 1, 2008 Nice creamy head at pour. Dissolves into nice lacey brussels of tiny bubbles. Red brown color, very nice in fluted pilsner glass. Smells of apples and carmel as you lift the glass. A taste of pear and carmel that ends in a ever so slight bitter taste and dry mouthfeel. Second sip gives the same with slight chocolate notes and less bitterness. A very well rounded beer. I wish I had more then one bottle!

Feb 21, 2008 Very good brew; it more than makes up in taste for what it lacks in complexity; thin-to-medium body; hints of caramel; very nice roasted malts; pours clear dark brown with a ruddy tinge; off-white head; strongly recommended.

Feb 9, 2008 Malty sweet nose, almost a hint of burnt chocolate...maybe some clove and tobacco? Reddish brown color, head disappeared quickly. Sweet, almost smoky. Seemed thin, almost had a flat cola feel. Not horrible, but would not buy again.

Feb 2, 2008 Pours dark brown, but clear. Shows ruby when held to light. Nose is fairly mild. Sappy caramel character there, but just a wee bit. Isn’t really that strong. Flavor is very caramel sweet. Strong sugar tones. Leafy tone on the very end that is extremely subdued. Feel is a bit thick on the liquid. Decent level of carbonation. A bit too syrupy I would have to say. Overall though pretty good. Nothing fantabulous, but good enough to try. And for some good enough to go back to maybe.

Jan 23, 2008 Full bodied malt smell, great taste on the tongue-smooth and robust. Nice brown Ale with a mocha malty aftertaste.
