Creamy beige head with brown body. Aroma is sweet caramel, nutty. Taste is sweet, caramel, nutty, some roasty, with a hint of peat in the bitterness. Light-medium body.

Jun 4, 2008 Faint floral nose, that follows through with some roasted caramel. Pretty mild flavors, somewhat subdued, with a hint of light chocolate and nuttiness. Light hoppiness in the finish. Decent brown ale.

Mar 19, 2008 Pours up a nice clear deep amber, certainly brownish, with a tan to off white head suspending a brown hue in places and some cobweb lacing. Good looking beer. I get almost no aroma on this beer. Might be just a faint roasted maltiness but it’s so light that might just be what I was expecting to smell rather than what I actually get. The taste is roasty maltiness and not really any malt astringency I associate with a brown ale. Pretty tasty and mild in flavor carrying some rich smooth medium to moderately roasted malts. Hey, a faint malt astringency does show up about midway giving the beer that classic brown ale feel. This is an even tasting light weight sessionable brown ale.

Aug 10, 2007 Moderately pathetic. This beer lacks substance and flavor. With little to no carbonation and an almost un-noticeable nutty coco flavor, this beer rates poorly for me.
