| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 30, 2008 Very drinkable, but not alot of flavor. I understand the role of a session ale, but really could have used some more flavor and complexity overall. Like a waterier Newcastle. thornecb (1804), Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 9, 2008 Pours tea-colored into a shaker. Fluffy off-white head bubbles and pancakes as it slowly recedes. Dried biscuit aromas. Soft, sweet caramel upfront with a lasting metallic finish. Boring. Holdwine (908), Beertimore, Maryland, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 9, 2008 Nice enough brown, but nothing special. Easy on the tongue and full of nuts, and sweet malt. A tad watery, and not too complex. esjaygee (1578), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jul 3, 2008 Brown with large slowly diminishing tan head. Aroma of caramel with nuts, brown sugar and toasted malts. Taste is more of the same wrapped up in a ho-hum watery body. They may call it a session ale, but one is more than enough.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jul 1, 2008 Reddish-brown colour. Thin head. Slightly smokey, slightly munich malty nose. Fresh craclklin’ grains. Palate is thin, with some light nutty notes and some of that Newcastley metallic taste. jjuf1853 (480), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 28, 2008 Bottle from six-style mixed pack pours a clear, dark amber color with a tan head. The aroma consists mainly of sweet malts and nuts. Flavor is also sweet mostly malts but a slight hop bitterness in the finish. Not as flavorful as some brown ales but decent nonetheless.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 24, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Pours a medium amber with a nondescript thin off white head. Very odd and unexpected mint aroma. Lots of nuts and maple flavors. Mild bitterness and chocolate tastes as well. A good brown ale.
