Draft. Brown with white head. Smell of chocolate and slight hops. Great tasting brown ale with a slight chocolate feel.

I had this at a restaurant. It is easily one of my favorite beers - granted I’m no beer expert and haven’t tried too many yet. Very smooth.

Good overall but a little light for my taste. Good aroma and a nice slightly burnt taste.

Black color! Looks supergreat! Big malty aroma. Sweet and oakey with a somewhat bready dimension to it.

Love this stuff. Not too hoppy at all, and with a taste similar to a Scotch Ale, but without the overpowering sweet finish. Highly recommended.

I received this as part of my Beer of the Month Club. Nice brown color with a pretty good nice brown head. Nice chocolate aroma and flavor. Definitely a nice classic brown ale.

Fantastic beer. This is the most nutty ale I have ever had. It absolutely REEKS of sunflowerseeds, and the resulting flavor is wonderfully salty, full bodied, and nutty with hints of cocoa Old Bay. This beer was fantastic, I was shocked at how delicious it was considering its 64% rating. This may be my new sub $7 staple beer.

Living in Charlotte, the Carolina Beer Company is right next door, so I felt obligued to give this one a try. I found it to have a very refreshing taste, and thought it was quite rich and bold. Like some of the other reviewers, I also noticed a hint of chocolate.
