Jun 28, 2008 12 oz. bottle in pint glass:Copper, hazy pour.
Aroma is malty with hint of spruce.
Medium-bodied ale tastes highly-carbonated. Flavors of spruce and horehound candy, with robust malty sweet lasting finish.

Jun 27, 2008 This is a dryish but well-balanced, smooth, tasty, nutty brown ale that lacks some weaknesses that I commonly find (one-dimensional character, off-balanced burnt-bitter element, blandness). Igt is deep red-brown with a big tan head that slowly shrinks and leaves a little weak lace. The aroma is dark tasty bread, nuts, hints of chocolate, coffee, and fruit/raisins. It’s goo d and not too sharp burnt, etc. The taste is nicely toasty and nutty without being burnt or sharp. It has a fruity quality as well and is very smoth with great balance. It has a lightly dry, toasty finish and is quite drinkable.

Jun 23, 2008 Poured a fairly clear dark copper amber, like a strong iced tea. A 1 inch tan creamy head that disappeared quickly. There is a mild nutty aroma and a subtle sweetness in the scent. A crisp clean taste, nice carbonation. Initially more flavor of hops than a nut flavor, but the nut flavor developes the longer you drink. It has a bit of the English dry ale finish. The beer in general is mild as to aroma and flavor. After having several other Green Flash beers I was looking for more flavor out of this, but still good.

Jun 2, 2008 Sample at Alan’s HSC initation. Bottle from Howard’s Market in Tehachapi, CA. Pours a brownish-amber color with a thin light tan head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Toasted malt and nut aroma with a bit of hops. Medium, smooth body with flavors of nuts and caramel malt, plus a touch of hops and chocolate. The finish is nutty with a mild hops and semi-sweet chocolate aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Jun 2, 2008 Sampled at Alan’s HSC initiation, thanks Dogbrick: Very nice ruby brown pour. Aroma is roasted nuts and caramel malts and a touch of buttery toffee. A pretty carbonated brew, I get flavors of nuts, caramel malts, and a tinge of vinegar. A drinkable brown ale but not my favorite.
