Aug 3, 2007 Oh, this is right up there with the best brown ale’s I’ve had. The total package, delicious aroma, and a nutty flavor that delivers. Will definitely seek this one out again.

Aug 1, 2007 This beer impressed. Pours a nice dark brown with caramel highlights. Aroma is a mix of malts, chocolate, and fruit. Taste is a healthy combination of malts, chocolate, nuts and maybe caramel.

Jul 30, 2007 Aroma: fresh, hoppy, bitter, seville orange, chocolate malt, fruity, rich.
Appearance: deep raisin brown, foggy with beige head that sets to leave a thin blanket...
Flavour: bittersweet, full-bodied malt, some sourishness, not exceptionally deep but a nice spectrum.
Palate: nice... dry, almost yeasty.

Jul 29, 2007 Pours a mildly hazy brown with an off white head. The aroma has a little nutty roastiness, some malt presence, maybe a little dark fruit. Pretty light bodied, with very mild flavor. A little bit roasty and nutty as well, but the flavor is pretty lacking here. Definitely could use a little more body too. A little bit sweet, maybe some mild cinnamon notes or brown sugar. Overall, pretty drinkable, but about as unexciting as it gets.

Jul 29, 2007 I can go either way with brown’s- like ’em or hate ’em, no in betweens. This one- I LIKED,ALOT! Nice nutty malty aroma, good dark amber/ brown color. Good tan head. Mouthfeel is great for a brown. It has some density, not like some weak brewed versions of brown’s i’ve had. Most importantly, the flavor was really good. Substantial taste, nutty and earthy, coyingly sweet caramel flavor. Good feel and flavor of hops which at times is non-existent in brown ales. Carbonation is just right. If you have a hard time finding a brown you like, I suggest you try this one."

Jul 29, 2007 Bottle, bb Aug 07. Dark brown with a small lasting head. Aroma is spicy molasses. Flavor is chocolate, spicy raisins, marshmallow, molasses. Has a nice bitter herb and slight coffee finish to counterbalance all the great malt flavors. Palate is slightly dry and medium-bodied. Excellent brown.

Jul 28, 2007 The style I will never understand: brown. The wrong taste of chocolate. The wrong taste of malt. Nothing about brown every works, even for Brooklyn.

Jul 28, 2007 12 oz bottle: Nice nutty almost smokey aroma, with the scent of chocolate and caramelized malts coming to the forefront. Appearance is a murky brownish black with wonderful head retention it just sticks up there with a foamy off white head. Taste is the maltiness comes through, almost a candy like taste with some chocolate mixed in there. Not too sweet at all. Wonderfully carbonated I really like this brown ale it’s solid in my opinion!
