Oct 10, 2006 12oz - Aroma is subtle malt with a touch of nuttiness. Pours solid brown with a huge head and good lacing. Flavor is toasted malts with some nuttiness. Palate is kind of sticky. Not great, but drinkable and goes well with many of the menu items at the brew pub.

Sep 15, 2006 Bottle. Deep dark red (with some brown) pour with a thick creamy, lacing tan head. Roast, nuts, caramel, and some earthiness in the relatively potent nose. Same notes in the mouth, earthy nuttiness dominating with gritty roast right behind. Burnt and dry. Aftertaste the same but with lingering hops. A lot of flavor for a not-very-full body. Pretty damn good for a Brown Ale, even manages to avoid most notes of sweetness... but still, just a brown ale.

Aug 28, 2006 Thanks to Hippie4beer for this one as a nice bonus beer. Pours a nice deep amber/brown with a pretty nice lasting foamy head. Aroma is phenolic with slight solvent and rubbery hints and light caramel. Light caramel sweetness, herbal tea-like hops, more off phenols, and astringent finish.

Aug 13, 2006 Attractive rich brown pour with a thin off-white head. Very weak caramel nose, but I might have been imagining that. Weak-sister thin caramel flavor with very mild nuttiness. The palate is weak and disappointingly thin and watered-down. Better choices out there in this style.

Aug 13, 2006 Enjoyed at Great Taste of the Midwest festival. Poured a deep brown, with reddish notes. Huge tan head Chocolatey aroma. Nice and malty like a good English brown, but with a really solid hop backbone.

Aug 7, 2006 Pours a deep bronze color with a thin white head that is fully diminishing. Aromatically weak with mild notes of caramel. Mostly malted flavor is thin and alcoholically dry, interspersed with bland nuttiness. A bit fizzy in the mouth and dry to finish. O.K.

Aug 7, 2006 Deep caramel brown body with a skinny beige head. A bit watery. The aroma and the flavor are the same, caramel, lightly roasted malt, some crushed nuts, and a dollop of chocolate syrup. A so-so brown ale. Helen needs to get dirtier. <font size=-4>Sloshed down a The LoSBD mini-meeting, thanks to <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=3 and <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=1 size=-1>

Jun 22, 2006 12 oz bottle: poured iced tea brown with a small tan head. Sweet malt aroma. Sweet malt and light fruit in the flavor. Fairly thin body. Clean tasting and seemingly well made. Mild candyish flavor in the finish. Good.
