Nice aroma of coffee. The taste is sweet, chocolate and hints of coffee. A pleasant aftertaste.

The aroma shows crystal and chocolate malt and earthy hops. It pours a light brown with light fine carbonation and a slight hop lace. The flavor is a nice blend of malts and dry earthy hops with slight acid and a clean, short finish. Overall a drier, hoppier version of the British style.

Pours gloden with a tan head of medium size. Fruity aroma and has a very smooth taste. No bitterness and doesn’t leave an aftertaste.

Pretty mahogany color. Coffee and roasted aroma. Taste is toasty and chocolaty. Some bittering malts are present on the finish. Surprisingly a good brown ale, nice and balanced.

On tap at mellow mushroom with curly. Clear dark brown with near white head. Weak toffee aroma. Flavor is nutty, toffee, and toasty. Slight alcohol burn on nose and tail end. Good session beer though.
