hazy dark brown, fine beige head, lots of thick lace,
good chocolate aroma with a touch of caramel malt to add some sugary sweetness,
light body,
rich chocolate flavor, great caramel and brown sugar sweetness brings out the chocolate,touch of nutty character, light bitterness keeps the balance and brings in a nice bitter finish,

Nov 26, 2007 On tap on 10/28/07: Transparent amber mahogany pour has a dense, frothy light tan head. Aroma of slightly toasty malts with some fresh English hops. Body starts fairly full with a mild earthy malty sweetness and some piny hop character toward a crisp, bittersweet finish. Smooth, authentic and drinkable. A pretty good mild.

Pours hazy dark copper orange. Stiff white head.
Pours dark copper, almost brown. Pour with a nitro style head, but the beer was served on CO2, presumably.
Light earthy hops aroma with a toast and a bit of chocolate.
The hop flavor seems to be a bit more that an touch. Nutty, and toasty.
Light and dry. Refreshing carbonation.
Not really anything special, but I would drink this beer anytime. Nice beer.
