From a bottle poured dark brown with a small amount of light brown head. Flavor of sweet malt with a lingering aftertaste.

This beer poured a deep brown with no head. The aroma reminds me of caramel, some butterscotch, and the slight hint of roasted grains. The flavor is very close to the aroma except fuller. It is nutty, roasted, caramel tasting. It has a medium body with low carbonation. I enjoy this beer and wouldn’t hesitate to drink a six-pack.

deep brown color. nice nose even though its colder than it should be right now; caramel, nutty, chocolate, warm. flavor less inviting but tasty; dry, woody, a touch sour. mouthfeel average if not sharp. very drinkable, accessible, and fun even.

Nutty roasted malt aroma with some chocolate notes and a hint of hops. Nice light toasted malt and nutty chocolate flavors. Looses points with me for a pretty thin, watery body. Overall, not bad but nothing spectacular here.

12 oz. bottle via trade with Linus Stick - Pours a dark brown color with a 3/4 finger thick light tan head. Very light lacing. Aroma is a veggie like, lightly roasted malt with a hint of nuts. Also has a good bit of herbal hops in the aroma. Flavor is toasted malt, chocolate, and light nuttiness. Soft palate, but a tad thin. Light to medium body. A pretty good Brown ale. Thanks Alan.

Pours dark brown with a tall but unstable tan head. Very chocolatey aroma definitely with a roasted character that could be nut-like. Taste is definitely nutty, also with a little chocolate in the middle and on the end. Thin body though, and a flavor that doesn’t really last or really stand out. Really like the initial sweet nutty flavor though.

Garnet color with a light tan head. Mild nutty roasted malt aroma. Medium bodied . A mild flavor mirrors the smell with roasted malts and nuts. Very fresh tasting. 9277

Pours dark brown with a thin tan head. Nice malty aroma. Taste is nutty with a bit of chocolate on the finish. Body is a bit too thin and watery.
