Bottle. Pours a clear, light brown with an off-white head that dissipates quickly. Aromas if heavy on the hazelnut and walnut with some caramel malt. Taste up front is nutty with some milk chocolate and then moves to oats, caramel malt, and roasted malt. Slightly roasty finish. Watery mouthfeel.

12 oz bottle: Amber-brown in color with a slightly tan head that fades fairly quickly. A nutty aroma with hints of caramel and malt. Flavor consists of nuttiness, malt, caramel, coffee, and chocolate. Body is a little thin. A good but not great brown ale.

Bottle in trade from ROBORB. Thanks! Pours a dark reddish color with a light beige short lived head. Smell is nutty and lightly chocolatey. Taste is thin, but with a nutty and watery chocolate flavor and light bitterness. Some light fruitiness too. A bit thin on the body and flavor but still decent. Solid brown ale.

Pours a nice dark brown with a solid head and good lacing. Definitely has a very nutty aroma and taste to it with a little bit of biscuit in there as well. A very solid beer. This is a local brew for me and is readily available which I am happy about as this has become one of the standard selections in my beer fridge.

Bottle. Pours Brown with thin white head. Smell of malt with hint of a nutty aroma. Taste of slight coffee with chocolate hint. Not a bad offereing from a local brew.
