Sep 4, 2008 A nice and tasty brown ale. Nice roasted malt aroma. Pour was very dark brown with a 1 finger tan head. Taste was full and good. Very nutty with maple and roasted malt and a biitter roasted malt aftertaste. Nice carbonation and a lingering nuttiness.

Aug 26, 2008 Bottle: Amber in color, decent head. Aroma of spicy dried fruit. Taste is hint cherry and sweet malt. Texture is average along with the carbonation. Pretty enjoyable beer. It has a sweet barleywine taste. I am not picking up any brown ale characteristics, but still good.

Aug 20, 2008 Bottle: Poured a light copper color ale with a nice of-white foamy head with good retention and no lacing. Aroma of deep caramel malt is surprising and quite enjoyable. Taste is a mix between some deep caramel malt with some light toffee notes and no discernable hops presence. I wasn’t expecting much for this one but I was quite surprise – the grain bill was perfect and quite dominant or more so then most beer form this sometime boring style.
