Commercial Description:
This beautiful, deep russet brew has the sweet and somewhat nutty character of Adam Avery's late (1992-2002) Chocolate Lab, for which it is named. Crystal and chocolate malts give this beer a brown sugar maltiness with hints of vanilla and nuts, while subtle hopping gives it an overall drinkability that's second to none, just like Ellie!

Deep brown body with a light tan head. The nose is light apples with hints of leather. There is also a little bit of sweet potato. The taste has some nice notes of coffee and a little bit of milk chocolate. Notes of apple peel come through. This is a solid and very drinkable brown ale.

Clear dark brown color, big fluffy off-white lasting head. Fruity, hoppy, grainy, malty, sweet, some alcohol scent. Also a bit acidic and some alcohol notes. Malty, caramel, grainy, alcohol taste. A bit harsh. Medium mouthfeel, medium bitterness. Fruity aftertaste.

Pours mahogany with a foamy beige head that lingers. Faint aroma of brown sugar with some earthiness and caramel. Tastes of caramel, sugars, coffee. Bit thin.

12oz bottle. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Has a drinkable malty sweet taste but nothing spectacular. An average brown ale.

Faintly sweet, malty brown ale aroma in this brew. The appearance is clear brown with a small head. This is one of the most delicious brown ales ever, so clean and crisp on the palate, but rich with flavor at the same time. The subtle flavor of the chocolate malts come through, but not sweet, just pure.

Wierd roasty, almost ashen smell. thin, reddish brown appearance, tan head. Roasted nuts, some chocolate, brown sugar. Flavor is roasted nuts, again slightly burnt, chocolate malts. Finish is a little weak, a light hop bittering. Middle of the road mouthfeel. Sessionable, not bad, not remarkable.

Bottled. Clear dark brown, medium tan head with nice lacing. Aroma of caramel, roasted nuttiness, light coffee. Taste is fairly sweet, ending in mild bitterness. Notes of caramel, chocolate and coffee. Very smooth, one of my favorite brown ales to casually drink.

Draft @ Monster B’s. Solid, but nothing spectacular. Sweet with coffee cake notes. Thin, medium palate.
