Jul 31, 2009 I was shocked at how much I would love this beer. I had Hobo’s Breath Brown Ale from Mt. Pleasant, MI a few weeks back and loved it but they were out at my favorite watering hole. This one tasted similar, with chocolate, caramel, nuts and roasted malt. But what shocked me was how smooth it went down and the excellent aftertaste. I would certainly recommend this if you can find this.

Nov 14, 2002 Nice strong malt backbone and interesting spicy bits as well. Another quality Michigan brown but I’m still in mourning for Boyne River.

Jul 21, 2004 Nice beer bottle brown color, nearly opaque with rusty edges, thin tan cap adorns the top A thin collar keeps and the lacing is spongy in strings. Nose is mild with a slight roasty malt and a bit of caramel and toffee. Taste brings out much more, thank goodness for that, and whats there is quite nice for a brown. Well rounded taste, mild and foregoing, lengthy and bold. Roasty, husky, earthen malts speak easy across the palate, moderately sweet with a dark toffee tang. Some astringencies are present, but not eagerly so, just right I think. Feel is good with about a medium body and a peppy carbonation. Lightly dry roasty touch slips into the finish. A fine brown ale to be sure, not as sweet as others which was good. More of a straight up roastyness with a small earthy, raw grains taste that’s nicer then most browns.

Nov 14, 2004 Bottle. Very nicely done brown ale. Rich malty aromas mix with hops in the nose. Deep chestnut color. Thin head. Malts dominate the taste, very rich and nutty. Hops show in the tail end nicely. Recommended!

Feb 5, 2003 I was impressed with my first dark horse. Not weak, there is a good bit of depth and flavor to this brown ale. Nice smokey flavor. A good brown ale.

May 27, 2002 Pours a muddy color, and it took a little work to get all of the yeast into my glass. Good solid malty flavor and aroma. Thanks PsychProf!
