Very much like a brown ale, but it seems too thin. Also, it doesn't clear the palette fast, but this allows some of the more subtle flavors to sink in.

Dec 1, 2007 Had this beer on 9/15/1999. Color is almost purple. Taste is way dark. Rich body that goes down with a strong roasted malt flavor. Finish is this roasted flavor backed by a mild bitterness. Overall its good, but a bit strong.

Oct 19, 2006 Courtesy of OhioDad. The aroma is a toasty coffee/chocolate/caramel mix with a touch of dry cocoa powder-like notes. The body is a dark ruddy brown and holds a rapidly diminishing, wispy tan head. Lots of sweet caramel, choclate and coffe with some peanut skin notes and a dry, but lingering malty sweetness in the finish. Very intense flavor concentration. It really packs the tastebuds with gobs of flavor...primarily the coffee notes, but some sweet dark fruit, chocolate, nuts, cocoa and caramel are there as well. This is very tasty and has a damn nice mouthfeel. I haven’t had enough Milds to know if it is a good Mild, but it’s a damn tasty brown ale/light porter and I think most everyone in this thread is insane to rate it so low. This beer tastes great.
