| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 19, 2008 Dark brown with a thin, brown head. burnt brown sugar, malts, molasses, some smoke and nuts. Medium body. The flavor is full of roasted malts, with the molasses, brown sugar, and citrus hops rounding out this brown. Solid and easy to drink. Wouldn’t search this one out, but wouldn’t turn it down, either. dmtroyer (410), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 19, 2008 12oz. Dark brown with possibly a bit of red around the edges. Aroma is mostly sweet & sour malt, body follows with a bit of roasted malt added on. Meh, some decent carbonation but overall pretty boring. Little to no complexity.

Hazy, dark brown with a tint of orange and a small, off-white head. Burned and lightly smoked aroma with some nuttiness. Medium body with lightly sweet and burned malt accents and a whiff of nuts.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 17, 2008 Dark mahogany color. Aroma of caramel, roasted nuts, wet soil. The mouthfeel is quite dry, with a strong dark caramel taste and some roasted and chocolate malt. Bitter but without hop quality. Unimpressive. screigh (260), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jan 10, 2008 Pours a brown amber. Small head. Aroma almost not there. Basic brown. Fairly bland. Hint of smokiness and some chocolate. Actually some bitterness. Then the finish tastes like it might be old. Cardboard flavor. Too middle of the road to buy again. zebracakes (1214), Washington DC, USA

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Dec 31, 2007 Alright beer, got it from my buddy Drew. Dark color, but with barely an aroma what so ever! Not to much flavor as well....no the chosen beer! Cobra (1061), In a van, down by the river, Maryland, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 30, 2007 22 oz. brown bomber bottle. No freshness date seen. Poured out a deep brown color, with a soapy white head. Aromas are the usual suspects, malts, some hops, nothing special. Flavors are pedestrian, run of the mill for a brown ale. OK mouthfeel, but on the thin side. Nothing to write home about.
