radagast83 (1071), Springfield, Virginia, USA May 28, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a brown color with a small head. Way too carbonated for my tastes. Fizzy, light, malt flavors. I think I could pass on this one and stick to the other beers from this brewery.
merlin48 (352), New Tazewell, Tennessee, USA Sep 28, 2008 Twelve ounce bottle pours a clear cola brown body with a small and transient beige head. Sparse lacing. Aroma is muted, just a hint of chocolate and faint grassy hops. Medium body is overcarbonated. Taste is underwhelming. Faint malty chocolate and a vague hop bitterness. Maybe this is an old bottle. RONCOD (76), Pennsylvania, USA Sep 21, 2008 Dark brown color with a thick tan head that faded quickly. The first taste was a sweet caramel malt flavor. The flavor faded a little at the end. Not too bad. I would try again. daknole (836), Plantation, Florida, USA Sep 8, 2008 got this in a trade a long time ago. Not half bad. brown pour wtih a beige head. Aromas of nuts and malt/. Flavor is nutty, yeasty, crackers, etc. Not bad, not bad at all! lithy (200), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Aug 25, 2008 Very clear ruby brown color with a thin tan head and heavy nutty brown malt aromas. Warms roasted nuts and a light effervescence on the tongue gives a smooth nuttiness and breadiness to the taste but is not as ’heavy’ as the aroma suggests. Some milk chocolate slips through in the finish and lingers nicely. smjohnst (160), , Pennsylvania, USA Aug 2, 2008 This was a decent nut brown ale. I still like new castle much more. It just hat a little bit of bite that I didn’t like in a brown ale.
