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!

Pours a very dark brown with the slightest ruby tint. Aroma is caramel, chocolate, fruity esters and hints of grapefruit and lemon hops. Flavor is an excellent balance of roasty barley, chocolate, hints of coffee, and a tad of fruityness. Palate is slightly thin, but most excellent for the style. Very nice.

At Sudwerk Beerfest 2009. This dark brown ale poured with a generous beige head and a pleasant chocolate aroma. There is a chocolate and nut flavor that is quite tasty.

Very fruity!! Is this a peach and guava infused beer? Nice near-still pour. Creamy feel and medium body with slightly sweet malt finish. Lacks hop bite and nutty toasty malt. Solid fare.

bottle. aroma is nutty and malty. flavor is of molasses and caramel. its a tad too heavy, almost like a milk stout. sugary and sweet. a bit of an oily finish. its ok, nothing special honestly.

At World Beer Festival in Raleigh NC, this poured a deep brown with a nutty, roasted malt nose. Taste of nut, chocolate and malt. Solid mouthfeel, solid Brown Ale. Another great Avery brew.

Pours a clear dark chocolatey brown with a fair amount of head and good retention. Smells of hops, malts, and funk. Tastes of pure bliss, malts, moasis, funky-freshness. Felt a bit flat on the tongue, but otherwsie solid. I want to drink more and more of this. I believe this has just become my preferred Brown Ale (unless I find something even more amazing).

pours crystal dark brown with a 2 finger head that fades very fast but leaves notches all down the glass. not much nose on this one but some faint grassy hops. upfront with the bitter hops then moves to sweet roasted malts. mouthfeel is smooth and creamy. if you enjoy a nice sessionable brown this is a great full flavored beer. i could put down several anytime of year
