| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 31, 2007 $8.69 for a six pack at Winn Dixie grocery. Its an unusual thing to find a quality brewer in a grocery like this. Of course they only had the lager and the brown ale, typical for North Florida. Chances of a decent microbrew stout turning up in a big box grocer around here are slim to none. Brooklyn has 38 brews listed and only 5 rate below a 3.0 (4 of those are retired!), none below 2.8, that’s a pretty good record for consistent quality. Brown ales don’t usually garner much favor with me, but this one is a decent offering. Its more hoppy than most, on the order of a Sierra Nevada. Good notes of chocolate are present, creamy and nutty, and plenty of hops. pumpmaster (481), Pembroke Pines, Florida, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 24, 2007 Nice brown color with medium head. Very hoppy for a brown ale. Better on tap than in the bottle. In the bottle it seems a little too fruity. Creamy body with slight bitter finish. A good brown ale.
