| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 9, 2007 Poured a clear brown color with a medium light-brown head. Its aroma was a nice blend of roasted malts, chocolate, and a hint of coffee. Nice smooth mouthfeel. Flavor was simililar to the aroma, as it was a nice chocolate malt flavor with a hoppy finish. Probably the best Fort Collins beer I’ve had from the bottle. elpresidente19 (5), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA does not count | 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 22, 2007 A very solid, drinkable brown ale. Good dark color. To be honest, I liked this one out of the bottle better than a snifter. Delicious toffee and hazelnut notes. Extremely smooth and tasty! phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 20, 2008 Pours a dark partially cloudy reddish brown colour. Head is full and frothy, tan. Aroma is very pleasent, nutty, and maple syrup. Taste is interesting, plenty of sweet nuttiness, but i also taste some green beans, maybe a little toffee or almond also. Either way an incredibly filling brew. joebrew (608), Farewell Minny; Hello Puyallup, Washington, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 23, 2007 Pours a nice deep mahogeneyed(?) dark brownish color, with a nice, but quickely dissapating tan head. Hint of spearmint like sweetness accompanies a heavy nutty sweetness and some biscuity sweet malt. Nice rounded flavor with a good dose of caramel and earthy nuttiness, as well as some light floral hops accompanying a light bittersweet chocolate note, the hops show up with more strength in the finish. Pretty nice beer. nearbeer (1851), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 20, 2007 650 ml. Darkish brown-copper and clear with a small, lasting head. Musty, malted grain and slight cocoa aroma. Flavor is toasted nut, earthy grains, spiced wood, slight yeast, and some sour-tart notes. Smooth, medium body has some nice tingle, and a dry finish. Nice fall-winter brown. ILoveNewBeer (113), Iowa City, Iowa, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 23, 2008 Delicious hazelnut flavor. I used to work at a coffee store and their Hazelnut coffee wishes that it had this flavor. Murphy (1759), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 7, 2005 Bottle. Expensive. Pours with a soapy head, color is a dark, clear brown. Big roasty, nutty, dry aroma, quite nice. Almost woody. Taste is a huge nuttiness, earthy, funky, and dry. Finish brings a soft bitterness. Wow. A serious brown ale. thegreenrooster (1842), St.louis, Missouri, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 19, 2007 Pour is a dark red with an average tan head. Aroma is sweet malts with some toffee and alcohol. Flavor is a nice big dose of chocolate malts with some breads and roasted nuts. Finish is is smooth and has an alcohol aftertaste. I was ready to not like this one b/c of some of the beers i have had from this brewer in the past but this was an above par brown ale.
