| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 25, 2009 This is a tasty brew with a complex palate. Somewhat hoppy, but with very hard to pinpoint notes of other unusual tastes of chocolate, black malts, with fruit(s), etc. Probably the best beer of the night.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 15, 2009 Bottle, Rehills, Newcastle upon Tyne. The intense hoppiness of this beautiful, chocolate brown beer hit me immediately, along with the citrusy tang of grapefruit, in the taste. Chocolate creeps in, mid-drink and the citrus becomes reasonably predominant. The head poured thick and off-white. I’ve had this before I started doing ratings and had forgotten how good it was. Three of their bottled beers are regularly available here in the UK, wish there was more. Truly excellent. Lumpy (1802), Carrollton, Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 15, 2009 Bottle. Body-very dark brown with a touch of very thick ring of bubbles. Fresh tobacco, leather, smells like a Brown Ale. Wow. Brown Ale. American Amber and Brown Ales-two styles that should be done away with for the common good of man. Taste-better than the nose, cinnamon, mace, chewing tobacco, chestnuts, dry barn flavor, a very slight hint of baker’s chocolate, lemon/lime. Good for a Brown Ale, but that isn’t exactly a compliment. mwelsh13 (483), Maryland, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 12/20 | Apr 11, 2009 Draft pours medium brown with a white head. Great brown bread and slight chocolate aroma. Medium body with some roast and chocolate again. Quite smooth. Not bitterness at all. altonbrownd (1962), Amsterdam, Netherlands
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 10, 2009 Bottle from Vanessa. Oaky brown body with thin tan head. Hoppy nose. Crisp mouthfeel. Also fruits in the flavour. Chocolate totally unidentifiable but some warming coffee notes in the finish. Long-lasting and siky finish. RyanMM (47), Ferndale, Michigan, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 4, 2009 Beautiful mahogany color, slight head settles to a bit of lacing. Creamy and pretty substantial mouthfeel. Nice hoppiness, crisp, and very delicious. slf245 (50), USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 3, 2009 Not bad at all! Watered down a little, but the hint of coffee makes up for it.
