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.

Really wonderful aroma. Thick and long nutty finish, the creaminess that I enjoy in an ale like this was a little overtaken by the bitterness of the hops

Love a good brown ale and this didn’t disappoint. Solid across the board with a nice finish and good flavors. Not as flavorful as the Rogue variety, but a nice brew.

Dark brown slightly clear pour with a white head. Typical malty aroma with some chocolate. Good easy to drink flavor. Brown malt with a bitter aftertaste. Some nut and chocolate tones. Decent brown, though there are better. Way too thin and it could use some more carbonation. Overall drinkable and enjoyable, though the flatness almost ruins it.

It’s a decent brown ale that lacks a little in body and hops, but it’s a smoother brown than most, and has a good nutty quality to it unlike most chocolate brown ales.

Pours a murky brown color. Aroma of sweet maly, chocolate, and nuts. Flavor is sweet with a hint of hops that really shouldnt be there.

Bottled. Wonderful roasted malt scent, with caramel, nuts, and chocolate undertones. Pours deep ruddy brown reminiscent of its eponymous trails. Same full bodied tasted that was expressed by the aroma with hints of hops and strong chocolate nutty finish.
