| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Apr 9, 2006 Thick pour with a dark brown color, ¼” head. Well carbonated and full bodied. Smooth going down with an average ale flavor. I expected much more nut flavor to it. Great brew, I will defiantly buy this again. Delbomber (387), Philadelphia, USA

Light brown head, deep, dark, mahogany color with a deliciously enticing roasty, buttery aroma. Malted chocolate flavor with a perfect amount of hop bitterness in the finish. Quite smooth, reminding me somewhat of a cream stout. Terrific. estoppel (1028), Buffalo, New York, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 7, 2002 I really like this one - I drink it when I visit my parents’ house (they live a few blocks from the brewery in Harrisburg). Not quite up to Sammy Smith standards, though. beermatrix (1497), Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 22, 2004 Caramel richly dark in color, solid and moderately opaque, thin dark ivory head, faded quickly with tiny lace spots slipping right back in. Smell is roasted sweet malts, tangy of dulled oranges with floral hop notes, nuts and honey. Taste is mildly roasted and tangy sweet malts, steadfast and quick on the buds with lingering nuts and hops into the finish. Solid tasting brown, good medium body with a bit of carbonation and ziz with flighty airyness in through the finish. Pretty solid brown, easy drinkin', mild and filling. drpimento (809), La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA

Poured dark brown with little off white color head. the Beer tasted light, not thick like i’m used too. Aroma I detected was of a toasted nut. Flavors when cold were nutty almost like a toasted walnut. As it warmed I got nutty chocolate flavors. Overall, I really enjoyed it’s smoothness. It was very easy to drink. I’ll be getting more
