| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 2, 2005 Growler from the brewpub. Pours dark brownish amber with quickly dissipating head. Malty aroma with hints of chocolate. The flavor has apparent nuttiness, caramel malts, and a touch of roastiness. Most drinkable, this. SpringsLicker (2043), Tennessee, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 13, 2005 Dark, ruby tinted brew with a frothy light mocha head.
Sweet malt aroma.
Slightly sweet but lacking in fullness of body and depth of flavor to go World Class. whaleman (2171), North Wales, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 18, 2005 Clear, bright reddish-brown body with substantial carbonation and a nice, creamy head with decent retention. Aroma of caramel, mild dark fruit, a note of warm diacetyl, and hints of veggies and vague earthy hops. Medium-high sweet fruit and caramel flavors with a hint of tobacco and creamy nuttiness. Building hop character with some toasty grain and hop bitterness. Fairly clean and well-rounded. Medium body with palatable sweetness and a creamy texture. Solid brown ale, but could benefit from more attenuation. I bet this has a strong following among non beer geeks. Thanks SpringsLicker. mnurda (434), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada

Forgot to smell it though (so gave it a 5). Very pleasant on the palate. Nice with cheese and crackers. piscator34 (1125), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 12, 2005 Brown in colour with a low to medium amount of carbonation. Aromas of nuts, malt, and toffee are dominant. There are flavor notes of caramel and chocolate malts, nuts, herbascious hops, and a touch of bread. It also has a lasting sweet finish. Very complex. wiseman (6), Washington DC, USA does not count | 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 5, 2005 Tasty nut brown, nutty at first but flavor fades somewhat.
