bottle brown/red pour with thin head. sweet malts, piney hops, nutty, candy aroma. chocolate, dark roasted coffee, banana, sweet malts and hoppy. overall pretty sweet flavoring.

Draught@Painobaari, Helsinki, 02/2008. Deep brown color, low head. Nutty, hoppy aroma. The taste is well-balanced, with a nice, nutty finish. A good american brown ale.

It pours a brownish red with a tan, frothy rootbeer-like head. It has noticeable, delicate lacing. The aroma is of sweet malts and hops. Chocolate malts are the dominant flavor, followed by a clean wash of hops. It is well balanced and perfectly carbonated. I would serve this beer with smoked fish or barbecue.

From LIC, Aarhus Bottled I love American Brown Ales and this is one of the best: Nice mouthfeel and a great combination of crystal malt and aroma hops

Malty, nutty aroma. Nicely balenced, well carbonated brown ale. A bit too much of a simple session beer. Flavor is sweet malt, nutty, hop character on the back end.

Pours a clear brown with a ruby tinge and a moderate tan head. Aroma is mildly nutty. Flavor is more of the same, mildly nutty with a little stronger roasted flavor. Well balanced and easy drinking.

Medium yellowish beige head. Deep dark red barely translucent body. Earthy licorice malts aroma with fruity notes. Strong peppery hops fill out the background. Dry peppery earthy roasty taste with fruity malty notes. Licorice, too. A bit soapy. A touch watery, but the taste is so wonderfully clear and distinct it doesn’t matter. Sharpish mouthfeel. Some sweetness. Dry ashes, earth, and licorice taste lingers. Very good! (0.355l bottle from Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)

Beer is deep ruddy brown and forms a thick and light brown head. Aroma is caramel malty with sweet fruits. Flavor is nutty, roasted malty and the ending is a little bit roasted and hoppy. Body is medium.
