Aug 3, 2008 12oz bottle. Thick ambery-brown color. Rich, creamy, with a nice chocolaty taste that lingers in the aftertaste. Sweet brown sugar aroma. Very drinkable and refreshing. This is really an excellent Brown Ale, vastly underrated.

Jun 7, 2008 Looks great with an obvious sweet nutty nose. Drinks easily and has a very pleasant roasted character. Sweet malt and biscuits. Nice effort.

Jun 6, 2008 Wow...this is one of the best brown ales I’ve ever had. Nice nutty aroma with hints of raisin and wine. Pour was a nice (you guessed it) deep brown with a 2 finger almost tan head. Taste was very nutty and delicious. Maple, caramel malt and wine with a nice thin mouthfeel. Not sticky or thick. Delicious.

May 14, 2008 12 oz. brown bottle. Old sample. Bottled on 1/8/07, according to their website. Why are they selling old stock to the public, and why won’t they answer email inquiries?
Lazy bastards.
BTW, this beer is a certified drain pour.
Nasty, chalky, and way, way past it’s prime.

May 12, 2008 Deep brown pour with 1-finger of off-white head. Nose is caramel malt, brown sugar, almond, walnut. Tastes malty and nutty, with some late hops and a medium to light palate heft.

Apr 26, 2008 Extremely tinny lime smell. Brown pour with floaties and thin tan head. Soapy lime flavor. Light bark and grass finish. Thinnish mouthfeel. Hardly like any brown ale I’ve ever had. Amber? Maybe.
