On tap at the Charlotte airport. Muddy brown pour with a nice brown head. Has a chocolatey, nutty and mildly roasted flavor. Light body with alot of taste, not bad.

Part of draught sampler at Charlotte airport. Reddish-brown, almost opaque, tan head. Muted whispers of caramel. Thin and fizzy mouthfeel. Hidden chocolate malts need to be brought more to the fore. Not getting it.

Pours a dark brown with a medium off-white head and no lacing. Nice balance of hops and malt, but I would have liked more of both. This is a pretty standard brown ale.

Your basic brown. Slight roasted nuttiness. Balanced malt and hops. Could have more of both, but very drinkable. You could do worse.

12 oz bottle Total Wine. Light roast slightly burnt aroma. Mostly clear amber brown with moderate off-white head. Roasty malt flavor with some peaty and burnt overtones and moderate astringency. Plum and dark fruit notes. Medium light body with moderate carbonation. Finish is dry with some residual bitterness and astringency.

Tasted on a recent visit to Woods on South in Charlotte, NC. Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. Aroma is faint, maybe some notes of ripe fruit and barley. Flavor is somewhat malty, maybe some hints of chocolate. Medium-bodied with slight bitterness on finish.
