Very simple malty aroma profile transitions to the sweet nuttiness in the flavor. Nothing offensive. But nothing special either. Cool label. Barrios (861), Nashville, Tennessee, USA

Solid brown color with a medium tand head with the pour. Mostly malts in the aroma maybe some caramel. The flavor follow along, but was thin all over, nothing stuck out, the malts or the caramel. There wasn’t much sweetness and the finish was a bit metallic. Brusin ales. OldGrowth (1434), North Carolina, USA

Sweet aroma, lite citrusy notes about it, nutty malts. Dark orangy brown color, Good head and lace. Bittersweet flavor chocolate, caramel, nutty, Thin body, lite creamy mouthfeel, bittersweet finish. Tasty brown, easy to drink. A good local I can find around in alot of non beer geek restaurants and bars. I like the aroma a little more overall, but not significantly. Session beer for sure. chandler0201 (358), Durham, North Carolina, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 6, 2008 Brown pour with large head that quickly dissipates. Flavor of nuts and malts and taste of nuts and molasses with a somewhat irritating metallic aftertaste. Not bad, but most of their smaller craft brews are better. NachlamSie (1650), Tennessee, USA

Bottle born in august 2008. Well, true to its style, this pours brown and also sports a good sized head. The aroma is nutty, bitter, toasty, and slightly metallic. Pretty uneventful in the flavor. I don’t get strong pulls in any direction. It’s remarkably mild even for a brown. Some toasted nuts, soy sauce, and brown sugar show up. The finish is slightly seltzer like. There isn’t much here. I was really excited to see the Big Boss bottles at first, I’ve now changed my mind. brewski519 (432), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 20, 2008 Pours a mahogany with a creamy head that doesn’t linger - a slightly nutty aroma with a hint of molasses and chocolate. Taste is fairly mild with some maltiness to it. Not a bad brown ale - I would drink it again for sure.
