Jan 26, 2005 Updated: Sep 29, 2005This isn’t a bad example of a brown ale, even tho’ I’m not crazy about the style because of the inherent flatness to it. But it’s got some nice caramel and chocolate aromas coming from deep brown, headless brew. It’s pretty sweet with caramel and chocolate flavors and a touch of nuttiness. Sadly, a lifeless, watery finish. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.clubsofamerica.com/beerofthemonthc of the Month Club<font size=-1>

Jan 24, 2005 I just don’t get brown ales, light hoppy flavor bland malty finish. It poured a nice brwon color and sweet malty aroma. It was good, bit just not enough.

Jan 24, 2005 I really wanted to like this beer - it has a nice flavor, aroma and appearance - but it’s totally flat. I hope that there is just something wrong with my batch but it tastes stale and there is no hint of carbonation at all.

Jan 15, 2005 Updated: Jan 11, 2008Tap-Old Chicago. Dark brown with nice off white head. Decent nose, sweet nutty toffee-like, faint roast. Flavor much the same. Plenty of sweet malt backbone, nutty character isn’t overwhelming like some browns. Very faint roast. Although I get no hop flavor, there is enough bitterness to balance out the finish. Sort of a doppel-brown in a way. Creamy-smooth mouthfeel. On tap this is a highly sessionable brew.

Jan 15, 2005 Hazy brown color with an off-white head. Flavor is fairly non-descript. Hints of nut and malt. Fair use of hops apparent in the finish. Mediocre.

Jan 13, 2005 Bottle: Roasted nut aroma. Pours a dark amber with a white head. Light malt up front with a pretty big roasted nut finish and a little hops.

Jan 13, 2005 A good bit nutty, as expected. I wouldn’t say it’s as complex as the description, but it’s good.

Nov 30, 2004 Cloudy dark brown with lots of particles floating around , small foamy tan head that leaves a some lacing in my glass, roasty nutty-bready aromas. Nutty caramel flavors, finishes on the sweet side. Medium bodied with a soft mouthfeel, a decent brown.
