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!

A strong malty aroma hit as soon as I poured. Deep brown in colour and beige head. Resinous and caramel to the nose with a hint of walnuts. medium body with a Creamy mouthfeel. Slight bitterness and a woodlike character to the taste.

Pours a clear yet dark ruby amber color with a medium beige head. Nutty malty aroma with a dry woody aroma. Taste is malty with a strong nutty presence. slight chcocolate finish. Pretty good for a brown ale.

The pour was dark brown and ruby. The head was off-white and nearly two-fingers tall. A restrained aroma of nuts, sugar and floral hops. The flavor is a bit on the timid side as well. Nutty malted flavor with a bit chocolate. The finish is more on the bitter side than I expected. Not cloying at all. Watery mouthfeel. A decent beer that isn’t offensive or adventurous.

Roasted malt, caramel and earth aroma. Sweet flavor with nuts, choclate and caramel- a bit of lactose. Fetch me another, Ellie...good dog.

Bottled. Not a bad beer. Hint of roasted malt. Little liight on the chocolate malts. Drinkable beer but nothing to go out of the way for.

Quite a lovely brown ale! Sweet and rich with some candy and coffee flavors. Carmel macchiatto?

Bottle: Deep brown, slight ruby, large foamy light beige head, sticky lacing.   Roasted malt nose, slight coffee, a bit earthy.   On the tongue there seems to be a bit of lactose, otherwise a roasted malt bang, with a shot of stale coffee beans and unsweetned malted milk balls.   Very soft notes of campfire or charred wood.   Moderate body and mouthfeel.   Slightly sticky on the finish, and even a bit dry.   Fairly decent example.

Bottle. Dark brown color. Caramel and red berries in both aroma and flavor. Sweet. Some herbal hops, with "Haagse hopjes" and a hint of licorice. Good beer, just a bit onedimensional.
