Pours a clear but pretty dark brown. Nice sized tan head. Nose is evenly roasted. Flavor is smooth and robust, but not overpowering. Seems like I get a very small touch of alcohol on there. Feel is smooth. Decent level of carbonation and the liquid is good. Overall this is a very drinkable brown ale. Deep and appropriately thick. Definitely worth trying.

Aug 16, 2008 Very dark brown pour, 1/4 inch quick fading head. Nutty aroma, Nutty taste, too much malt. The alcohol really stands out the most as far as taste goes. Okay

Aug 14, 2008 6 pack of 12 ozers from Frugal MacDoogal’s in Nashville. Poured an ultra deep brown with a creamy and puffy tan head. Aroma is of coffee and molasses. Flavor reflects the aroma, with a little hop balance. Well carbonated and creamy to the palate. Another brilliant DFH beer. This is by far my favorite brewery.

Aug 14, 2008 Poured a deep brown with a fluffy beige head. HUGE nose of coffee and molasses is echoed in the mouth along with a slight hoppy zing.Sweet finish.

Aug 14, 2008 Wonderfully well balanced. Aroma is smoky and sweet. Mouthfeel isn’t quite syrupy, but it’s definitely full bodied. Flavours of maple syrup, rich malt, coffee, smoke, taffy, and alcohol. A very drinkable brown ale, much more facinating than what is on the market today.
Sampled on tap at DFH Brewpub.

Aug 14, 2008 From a bottle purchased from By the Bottle in Vancouver, WA--Poured a dark deep brown and mildly chestnut hue with a thin yet creamy tan head. Rich roasty, nutty, mealy, and grainy nose. Apparent hop spiciness, but predominantly malty and with a dryish grain finish. A meal in a bottle.
