| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 18, 2008 Brown pour with a nice red center to it. Nutty caramel nose with a hint of chocolate. Flavor is a little more chocolate upfront with the caramel and nutty flavors as well and a mild hop presence. A little too watery, but outside of that a solid brown ale. fidelis83 (729), Clinton, Iowa, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 12, 2008 Pours a nice ruby brown with a 2 finger tan head that fades rather quickly to a thickish skin. Aroma is chocolate, caramel, dark fruits, plenty off rich buttery roasted nuts, and some floral/herbal hops. Flavor is nutty, grainy, a little chocolate, caramel and some herbal hops. Body is a little over carbonated and thin, but still a little sticky. Powertrip (202), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 10, 2008 Cloudy brown with an internal red hue. Cashews, malt & driftwood nose....all fairly light. Crisp....with sunflower seeds and a touch of fennel? Malt and cocoa deeper in the palate. Finish is light with the cashews appearing on the finale. Soft and crisp in the mouth. Decent. soyorganic (217), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 5, 2008 Bottle: crystal malt and plum aroma. A very nice beer with slight dryness, heavy carbonation and with a smoked malt taste dominating. It has a slightly sweet dark caramel vinous taste coming through which is nice and sets it apart from other brown ales. kosko20 (313), Bemidji, Minnesota, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Dec 2, 2008 A very nice brown ale. Nice pour of a dark caramel brown with a thick tan head. Aroma is malty of caramel and nuts but with a nice chocolate aftertone and a slight hop presence. Flavor is much of the same with a good bitter finish. Creamy texture and very easy to drink.
