Commercial Description:
A British style that has a roasted nut-like aroma. Brewed with a number of dark malts, which lend a complex malt character. This beer does not have a lot of hop bitterness, only enough for balance. 5.2 - 5.6% alcohol, by volume

Draught at brewery: Almost dark brown with amber hues showing through when held to the light, mostly clear with small bubbles seen rising to the surface - a small tan head that lasts. The aroma is mild: caramel, nuts, sugary sweet medium roasted malts, with barely a hint of hops. The flavor starts out with lightly sweet caramel malts, toffee, nuts then goes on to a subtle hint of roast. Overall the flavor is muted a bit, and it takes me a great deal of tastes to discern all that I just wrote. Light bodied, a bit watery, and medium carbonation.

Cask conditioned with a murky brown appearance, small head and little lacing. Spicy aroma with hints of toffee. Sweet malt taste with a barely noticable hop presence. Spices reappear in the finish.

I had to adjust the score. Tried one today. Not quite the same. Less malt. Crisp, clean finish. Better balance than before. They have a new brewmaster. Today’s taste was not an improvement. This beer rocks. A beautiful amber hue. A very malty and nutty nose. Malty, but not sweet. Perfectly balanced. Did I mention MALTY? A perfect brown ale.

Slightly sweet aroma (caramel), but basically strong malts. Flavor is malty but otherwise non-descript, and ends with a German-style bitterness.
