Jul 8, 2007 Updated: Feb 1, 2008Pours for the most part a head that collapses immediately, leaving a little foam around the glass. Dark brown color,with little light coming through. Nothing in the way of aroma unless you swirl the glass, and then its not overwhelmingly strong. Perhaps a little whif of cocoa. Nice refreshing brown ale. Nice aftertaste of malts on the tongue. Not overwhelmingly hoppy, which is good. Nothing particularly blares out at me to go in search of it, but I could easily see myself buying it again, especially if it was freshly on draft..

Jul 4, 2007 Updated: Aug 21, 2009Bottle. Mahogany and translucent with ruby highlights. Medium-sized head settles to a nice little skullcap. Aroma is great balance of chocolate molasses, smoke, caramel, metallic herbs and other unknowable stuff. Tastes of all that, plus roasted nuts, spicy raisins and just the right amount of bitter herbs. Palate is smooth, light-medium bodied and refreshing. I really wasn’t expecting much from this one based on other Mendocinos I have tasted, but man is this one ever underrated! I love Browns and this is one of the best.

Jun 30, 2007 xxx a drinkable brown ale, nothing exciting for the style, but not bad at all, and good name.

Jun 30, 2007 Bottle. Not much aroma here. Poured deep brown with white head, much lacing. Nutty flavour with a malty backbone. Quick disappearing finish, with light hoppy bite

Jun 18, 2007 beautifully done! Nice nutty brown ale with wonderful nutty taste too. This Jewish BunE is proud of a well done beer... Oh forgot to look to see if it’s kosher...

Jun 14, 2007 Bottled. Enjoyed this beer. Enjoyed the brand and beer name even more... clever. I haven’t had too many brown ales, but enjoyed this one.

Jun 6, 2007 Bottle. Brown beer with a small tan head. Aroma of rich dark malts. Flavor is a tad better than the Genesis. Malty with some spicy, astringent hops. Prickly on the tongue. Bitter finish and aftertaste. Not bad but barely worth the premium price. Great label.
