Jun 26, 2008 on tap at PJ Dorsey’s. See through brown with a smallish tan head. The taste is malt, with a bit of nut but the malt definitely comes thorugh. A solid beer that I would buy again if I was stuck in a bar that didn’t have much on the selection of of beer.

Jun 10, 2008 Pours a two finger light tan head that fades slowly, leaving some lace. Almost clear amber color. Good carbonation and medium bodied. Slight nutty nose. Flavor starts malty, nutty and just on the sweet side, brief hops at finish. $1.85 for a 12oz bottle from Colonial Spirits Acton, Ma.

Jun 5, 2008 Opaque brown color, viturally no head at all, what was there fizzled out very quickly, it sounded like pouring a soda out of a can & into a glass, the beer just kind of sat there and fizzled like a soda too, aroma was sweet with notes of caramel, chocolate & sugar, very light body, flavors were horrible, very sweet and overloaded with chocolate, brown sugar & rye, the beer had a rather sour finish & aftertaste as well, I couldn’t finish the entire bottle it was that bad

May 17, 2008 Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark brown color with ruby highlights and a small brown head. The aroma was moderately roasty and lightly smoky. The flavor was dry, bitter and very roasty with a hint of smoke underneath and a long, harsh and dry roasty finish.

Apr 23, 2008 Bottle 355ml
Appearance: Clear ruby brown ale with medium tanned top.
Nose : Mineral hints with sweet brown malts and unrefined sugar, touch of choco followed behind.
Flavor/Palate : Frontal roasty character, earthy , black soil like sweetened with soft chocolate malt. Interesting chemistry presented on palate that failed to produce fine finish. Either way decent attempt.

Mar 2, 2008 Dark brown, very faint head. Bland aroma: walnuts, caramel, tinge of chocolate, slight flawed metallic note. Weird over-steeped tea character, a bit earthy, but mostly sweetness, edging on cloying, dusty and grassy hop notes very slight. Watery mouthfeel, moderate carbonation.
