Pleasant malty aroma with hints of caramel and spice. Somewhat complex flavor, tastes of caramel, spices, roasted malts, hops and alcohol. All in all a tasty brew.

Pours a deep, dark clear amber with beige head, not much retention. Has small aroma of strong malt, caramel, brown sugar. Flavor is nice and rich, medium roast malts, sweet, and alcohol spice that compliments, slight bitter in the end. Mouth feel is a nice full body with medium carbonation. I enjoyed this! kassner (440), Wexford, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 20, 2008 Got this from vecenies It is areally nice example of the style. Brown gold, with a nice but modest head, malt odors and big malt and fruit tatstes. Just the right level of carbonation. estoppel (1028), Buffalo, New York, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 5, 2008 Updated: May 6, 200812 oz. bottle pours a clear amber brown with an off white frothy head that dissipates fairly quickly. Light malty aroma with hints of caramel and bread. Flavor is a sugary sweet malt with a clean finish. The mouthfeel is smooth and creamy with soft carbonation. Overall, a well crafted brew.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 4, 2008 Medium brown, fairly clear and light penetrable. Small thin ring of white foam.
Sweet and rich malt smells. Very nutty (roasted almond, pecan) with some caramel.
Rich almond and toffee notes, some bitter cocoa or slight espresso maybe. Not as sweet as the nose implies, some dryness and alcohol present. Warmingly alcoholic.
Fairly strong carbonation, medium heavy mouthfeel. Pretty drinkable. WesKBob (321), Bethany, Oklahoma, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | May 1, 2008 A very one dimensional beer. Pours a clear brown color with a nice off-white head that lasts quite a while. Good lacing. Aroma is malty, with lots and lots of coffee overtones and a faint "mediceny" quality, like the smell of a band-aid. From there, this beer is a one-trick pony. Lots of roasted coffee flavor, but not much else. It’s possible, I just got a bad bottle but I really couldn’t find much to recommend this beer. dkachur (2351), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA
