Jan 31, 2008 Bottle from local store. Pours nicely with a good size brownish frothy head. Not a typical Brown Ale, much better. Strong hint of coffee aroma but very smooth. Highly recommend.

Jan 31, 2008 12 oz bottle pours a dark brown with a thick tan head. Aroma is dominated by hops with a little malt presence. Flavor is caramel, a little chocolate and hop bitterness. I think this is my favorite Brown ale ever.

Jan 27, 2008 Poured brown with a tan head. Aroma of chocolate and nuts. Sweet malt flavor to start with some chocolate. Finished with a slight alcohol burn. Not bad.

Jan 25, 2008 Brown sugar reigns in the taste with a hint of hops to remind you that it is a beer. When craving an Indian brown ale, this one is a above average choice

Jan 23, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown and almost porter like in color. No head and no lacing. Aroma of raisins, toffee, chocolate and mild coffee. The taste is similar with malt dominating the flavor. I sense very little hops in this beer. I think the low carbonation of this beer poses a problem for the overall taste experience. A beer that I was expecting much more from.

Jan 23, 2008 Aroma: brown sugar & malt w/ a bit of anise and chocolate with a tinge raisiny wood and alcohol. Needs more hops in the aroma. Taste shows more bitterness mixed w/ darker malt bringing me back to Stone 11th Anniversary, although the similarities end there. Mouthfeel is smooth but slightly too thin. Seems pretty good when spliced up, but as a whole it fails to satiate me.
