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!

I am glad my review of this beer comes from a draft sample because out of a bottle this is not very good. Nice roasted malty sweetness with a hint of hops. Nice creamy mouthfeel with a dose of hops on the finish.

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 29 Sep 2007) Dark brown colour with brief, frothy, pale brown head. Malty, nutty nose with discreet coffee notes, roasted chestnuts, dark rye bread and some citrus in the background. Malty, nutty taste with notes of coffee and chocolate. Lovely balance. Very nice brown ale.

A great version of a english brown ale. Rustic brown in color with little lace. Aromas of toffee, nuttiness, and light hints of chocolate and floral hops. medium light body with a nutty malty taste and a big balance of hops that gives this beer a dry finish. Great with BBQ.

This beer poured a nice translucent brown color with a light, off white head.The flavors are rich with a nutty smooth finish. I though this was a very nice beer.

I had this on tap at the Denver Airport. For what it lacks in appearance it makes up for in taste. Poured a dark chestnut brown with no - repeat no head. When it came out of the tap I thought it was flat. Well it wasn’t flat. On the contrary it was full of malt and nut flavor and just the right amount of hops. Finished full and a little bitter. Maybe they just don’t don’t know how to pour it right. Anyway, I’ll be having this one every time I fly through DEN.

Bottle. Medium head. Sweet nutty toasty malty aroma and taste is the perfect compliment to the dark brown color of the beer. A good example of the style.

(Bottle) Pours a brown color with a small beige head. Aroma of hazelnut and sweet malts. Taste is of caramel and toffee, with a good amount of hops to balance. Could be a little less sweet and less carbonated, but an enjoyable Brown ale overall.
