alobar (1005), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 26, 2009 On nitro at North Wales. Chestnut brown color with a slightly off-white head. Aroma of nuts, roast, caramel, and chocolate with a matching flavor ( lots of nut on the back end). DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 14, 2009 Draft at P-vile, and I cannot believe I never had this before. Pours deep brown, a bit hazy, with off-khaki head and clingy lacing. Nose is roasty caramel malt, nuts, mild hops. Tastes malty, rich, very nutty. I noted hazelnut and pistachio notes, and the palate is very wel balanced, very smooth, and is another great example of one of my favorite styles from one of my favorite brewers. I growlered this one. egajdzis (3598), Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 13, 2009 [Cask at North Wales] Poured a lightly hazy, brown amber color with a medium sized, light tan head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel, toffee, buttery malts, light pine, nuts, and roast. Taste of nuts, caramel malts, vanilla, toffee, some pine, and citrus, with a semi-sweet finish.
