Great looking in the glass. It has a nice flavor but it doesn’t stand out. A slighty better than average brown.

A very sweet, beer. I was pleasantly surprised. Its malts were rich and toasty with a syrupy texture.

12oz bottle thanks to Springslicker. A dark brown/red pour with a slight tan head. A nutty aroma with a malt kicker. A nice sweet flavor not much bitter. The palate is just a tad thin and slightly over carbonated for me. Not a bad beer thanks Jay

Bottle. Hazy brown with a medium head. Aroma is nutty/roasty with a bit of chocolate malt. Taste was nutty with a bit of hop bite. Medium to light body. Moderate sweetness, light bitterness.

Nice looking, dark brown/mahogany color, this had a faint malty aroma of nuts, maybe little chocolate. The flavor was primarily of mal, again with notes of chocolate, nuts, caramel, and finishing with a slight hop bitterness. The palate was pretty thin, with little carbonation or alcohol presence. Not bad, not the greatest either.

Pours dark brown, with a tan head. Aroma is malt, nuts, and brown sugar. Flavor is malt, hops, nuts, and chocolate.

Pours dark brown with a minimal tan head. Light chocolate malt aroma, with a slight hint of hops. Mostly chocolate malt in the flavor, with light notes of caramel, and a bit of hop bitterenss in the finish. Palate is light/medium, slightly bitter, and a bit of cocoa. Overall, more like a light easy drinking sweet stout than a brown ale. Not bad, just not much to it.
