Feb 3, 2008 July 2006 - Not every Bells beer can be a home run, ok. Clear brown color, moderate head. Caramel flavor, touch of roast, but a bit watery and bland. Drab example of a drab style.

Feb 2, 2008 12 oz. bottle via trade with TURDFERGUSON - Pours a light brown color with a 1/2 finger thick off white head that faded pretty quick. Aroma is caramel malt and esters (cherries). Flavor is a sweet caramel malt. Light to medium body. Nothing fancy. Just an easy drinking Brown. Thanks Sam

Feb 2, 2008 Nice nutty smell. Great brown amber color with a thick beige head. Nice earthy flavor, malty but nothing extra special. Medium body and overall a good beer.

Feb 1, 2008 Pours brown (big shocker), with a pretty thick light brown head if you give it a good pour. Nice, sweet aroma...very malty with the slightest hints of molasses and caramel in there. Flavor is smooth caramel malts with some balancing hops in there. Slight bitterness late in the palate gives way to a clean, sweet finish and aftertaste. A touch of tobacco at the end as well. Good body and slightly oily on the palate. A quality version of the style by Bells.

Jan 31, 2008 Had this on tap. I was disapointed, the beer looked good, but was just a little lackluster for Bells. Nice and malty, but somewhat dry for the style.

Jan 31, 2008 Bottle from local store. Description is dead on. Rich malty taste but finishes very dry and smooth. Very good offering from Bells, one of my favorite breweries.

Jan 28, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a deep amber with a 2 cm bubbly tan head that is slowly diminishing. Aroma of roasted malts and a hint of caramel. Initial flavor has malts with some caramel. Flavor closes with some nuttiness that is lasting. Some lacing, light carbonation, light on alcohol. Light to medium body. Drinkable and simple, good beer for non-craft beer drinkers.

Jan 19, 2008 a very hoppy brown ale that differentiates itself from its supposed style. dense brown head tops a opaque body of dark copper hue, the aroma is grapefruit and caramel. hoppy and malty body and is slightly acidic.
