Dec 28, 2008 On tap at Pizza Port Carlsbad. Pours with a light brown head and a hazy deep brown body with good lacing. Aroma of nut, maple, chocolate, and light spice. Taste is very palatable, with nuts, spices, and cinnamon with a touch of tobacco. Light carbonation and a water like to dry mouthfeel.

Jan 12, 2008 Clear brown pour with almost no head. Aroma of nuts and burned caramel. Flavor of nuts, burned caramel, malt and mild bitterness in the end. The body is medium with a creamy texture and low carbonation. This is a nice, easy to drink brown ale.

Oct 16, 2007 In short: Superior yet classic nutty Brown-Ale
How: Hand-bottled flip-top brought to Montreal by WeeHeavySD. Thanks Jon.
The look: Clear ruby brown body with a short-lived beige head (I’m sure a fresh pint on tap would have a good head retention)
In long: Very nutty on the note. Body felt rather full and presented flavours of toasted nuts, crisp caramel and toasted bread. Leafy hops were not very tasty and were happy just to do their balancing job without interfering with the malt flavours. The beer felt creamy yet crisp at the same time. The carbonation wasn’t very lively but that was to be expected with a days-old hand-bottled flip-top. Despite the hand-bottled this was one of the best session Brown Ale I’ve had so I can easily imagine how good a fresh pint from a tap must be. The bottle we drank was a 3.5 but because of the hand-bottled thing I’ll be as generous as an oil tycoon to a republican campaign.

Mar 23, 2009 Thanks to Homerwantsbeer for sharing a growler. The beer pours a clear dark amber-brown color with a miniscule white head that disappears quickly. Spots and short strings on the glass. Equal parts fruit and malt in the nose. Medium, clean body with flavors of malt, caramel and sweet fruit, and a mildly hoppy undertone throughout. The finish is sweet chocolate malt with a fruity/nutty aftertaste. Pretty good all around.

Oct 30, 2005 This finally made it on tap here in Portland. Pours very dark cherry red, close to black with a off-white head. Very bit burnt roastiness to this, biscuty malts and burnt chocolate. Way more complex than most brown ales that you find, almost smokey quality to it, tasting much bigger than 4.8%.

Nov 4, 2006 On Tap @ Brewery. Brown color with light brown head. Light nutty aroma with some caramel notes. Nice nutty and caramel malt flavor. Tasty with a bit of hops to round it out.

Oct 23, 2007 Dark brown with a small white head. Roasty sweet chocolate and nutty aroma. Flavor is the same. A dry roasted nuttiness lingers in the finish. My only complaint is that it was too thin.
