Above average brown ale. urnamesucks (92), New York City, New York, USA Aug 20, 2008 Had this during the beer tasting. It wasn’t as good once you paid for it. Imaena (245), Portland, Maine, USA Aug 12, 2008 Bottle @ Brewery 08’. Roasted matls and hint of nutty funk in the profile. Thin and watery body. decent beer that would go well in a heavy session. JohnQPublic (162), Brooklyn, New York, USA Jul 30, 2008 Pours dark brown, bit of a tan head. Aroma is a bit roasty and just a tad nutty. Taste is a bit of roasty malt, a bit nutty. Finish is just a bit nutty, maybe the tiniest hint of cocoa, watery. Mouthfeel is kind of thin, watery, carbonation seems just a bit off, comes close to dominating the flavor. mcox90 (344), Wilton, New Hampshire, USA May 17, 2008 22 oz purchased at Tulley’s in Wells Maine.
