| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 24, 2009 Don’t know why but I was very excited to try this, I had heard really good things. 12oz bottle thanks to jake65. Thanks Jake! Pours a translucent, deep, maple brown color with a thin, lacing, beige head. Nose is pleasant and inviting, slightly nutty, slight crackers, brown sugar, sweet malts. Flavor is the same, sweet and malty, caramel, toffee, slightly nutty, almost candy like. Finish is sweet, smooth and a little buttery. Great session beer, subtle, perfect in a simplistic way.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 23, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear brown small head. Aroma of stale wheat and sweet malt. Flavor of caramel, some cardboard notes, although they generally fade as the beer warms. Palate is weak and watery. Ok, drinkable, but not a great example of the style.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 23, 2009 Beautiful dark brown body with a thin tan head. Light, sweet aroma with malt, caramel, and nuts. The mouthfeel is a bit thin with moderate carbonation. Flavor is almost all malty sweet goodness. Caramel and brown sugar give way to just a touch of floral hops. Just a bit of an aftertaste. A pretty good brown ale. Plamadude30k (122), Tucson, Arizona, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 15, 2009 pours dark dark brown, mouthfeel is watery, taste is pretty good though, slight bitter hops, not too much though. little raisiny, quick finish, not getting a whole lot of flavor, but it does have a nice nut finish. I had higher hopes, but overall its drinkable, just not one i would seek out by any means.
