3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20Bottle - You have got to get this stuff fresh as it makes all the difference in the world with this beer in particular. I am going to rate the fresh beer I tasted not the horrible old crap that I drained down my sink. Pours out ruby brown with a very small beige head. Smells sweet choco puff. mmm breakfast. The flavor is thin and coco and sugary (with flemish like funk when past it’s prime) that when fresh is almost like a rose flavor. Interesting only if you can sample to see if it Jekle or Hyde on tap.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a clear reddish/dark brown with a nice frothy tan head that leaves some decent lace. Aroma is nutty, dark chocolate, light roasted malts, toffee and a mild coffee. Flavour is coffee, dark chocolate, a mild bitterness, roasted malts, and a mild sweetness. Very session-able beer.
2.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a clean brown color with a touch of ruby highlights and a pillowy, light tan head. Aroma has lot of brown malt, light toasted nose, some light chemical nose late. Flavor is not good. The brown malt mixes with something and produces a really gross chemical, acidity that hits first and last almost the entire tasting. Once it subsides, some light toasted bready and chocolate flavors seep in. Body is light with a low amount of carbonation and a bit of dryness too it. Overall a pretty bad beer in my opinion.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap @ the brewery. Not sure if it was actually this good but it really stood out after sampling their lighter beers. Complex taste is malty with bittersweet chocolate and an indistinct fruitiness.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a clear dark brown with a ruby red hue and a light brown frothy head that leaves some lacing. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee and cocoa. Taste is chocolate, roasted malts and some coffee up front with a light bitterness on the finish. Body is light to light medium. Really sessionalble beer but overall is a bit thin for the style.
3.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 20/20
Malted, butty flavour, with hints of caramel stemming from a similar nose. Light palate. Tasty brown ale overall.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a reddish brown with a bit of white head. Smell is mostly malty with a bit of a sour note, almost cherry. Palate is light to medium bodied and has fairly low carbonation. Taste is interesting, a bit sweet at first but then quickly going to some soft hoppy bitterness with a bit of sourness and a shorter bitter aftertaste. Interesting brew!
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
341ml bottle pours an amber brown color with a finger of off-white head that leaves a few spots of lacing on the glass. Aroma is light chocolate and coffee with some herbal notes. Taste is chocolate malty sweetness with hints of coffee and a herbal hop bitterness in the finish. Light to medium bodied with some good carbonation leaving a pleasant sensation on the palate. Acceptable brew for the style but not spectacular.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle thanks to my FIL: Poured a light brown with light tan head. Aroma is metal and coffee. Taste is sweet watery espresso coffee and nut.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
It was okay for a Brown Ale. Nothing special. I did like the nose but it wasn’t as alive in the mouth as I would have hoped.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Dark brown, pretty clear, good off-white head and lace. Smell is malty, kind of sour. Tastes are vanilla, chocalte maltiness, and a bit of a sour finish. The mouthfeel was pretty full and creamy, went down smooth, had some good carbonation. I’d try this one again, but not spectacular.
