Cletus (4990), Connecticut, USA Oct 24, 2009 Pours brow with a light brown head. Smells and tastes earthy and sweet with some resiny hints. Decent. unclemattie (2337), Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2009 12oz bottle. Medium brown color. Tan head. Aroma of fruit cake. Sweet and nutty. Nice malt character. A little off balance. Seems to be overly hopped for the malt profile. Some light traces of spice may be the hops. bierkoning (5975), La Tropica, Netherlands Aug 25, 2009 Bottle from Secret Santa, thanks! Deep dark brown color. Toffee in the aroma. Malty sweet flavor with caramel and just a touch of butter. A solid beer without any special virtues, but well brewed. The beer is tasty and certainly has quality. JaBier (1126), Capital City, Ohio, USA Aug 22, 2009 Bottle sample. Clear light brown pour with a medium tan head. Malty aroma with caramel and some fruit. Fruity and caramelly flavor reminiscent of the Scottish Ale style. grandet (471), Scranton, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 14, 2009 From notes: Bottle poured a dark brown color with an off white head. Aroma is spices with some caramel and chocolate mixed in. Taste is spices with some caramel and malt sweetness. vtafro (452), , New Jersey, USA Jul 24, 2009 Thought this was a decent winter beer. Nothing outstanding but flavor was nice and aroma was appropriate. italianjohn (336), Bensalem, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 21, 2009 Poured a nice brown coke like color hardly much head but it was white taste of roasted malt caramel/chocolate thats about it no bitterness at the end was missing something average beer looks better than it tastes but drinkable Pwn3d (1028), Manhattan, New York, USA Jun 15, 2009 Bottled. Pour is dark chestnut with off white head and decent lacing. Looks extremely inviting. Nose is light ... a soft stale dough, sweet maple, malt, and roasted nuts. Taste is slight malt, stale biscuit, with maybe the slightest hint of sour apple. Very easy on the palate.
