Nov 16, 2005 (DC) Clear dark red-brown body with beige head. Aroma is mild, medium sweet, chocolate -- truly it is essentially non-existent until it approaches room temperature. Taste is medium sweet, floral, chocolate, nutty, light grapefruit. Dry hops evident in the finish. Light-medium body, lightly sticky.

Sep 3, 2006 On tap at the Springfield PA location, both cask and regular version. Pours a translucent brownish red with a medium light tan head. Obviously the cask versions head was creamy, lacing and sustaining. Aroma was nutty, caremel and light roast. Flavors of the same.

Nov 15, 2005 Draft at the DC location on 11-12-05. Borwn bodied, obviously, with a small tanned head. Nose is nutty and sweet with light hops. Hints of raw nuts (peanuts, mainly) as well. Taste is suitably nutty and malty with sweet notes and hints of pecans and peanuts. Mild hoppiness throughout. Body is light-medium with a mild carbonation feel. Finishes with light sweetness, mild hop profile and hints of spice and maybe brown sugar. Almost a touch of pecan pie at times throughout this. Better than expected.

Jan 24, 2003 Reminds me of a more flavorful version of Pete's. Dark and full bodied, kind of flat and bitter at the finish.

Nov 29, 2005 On tap in DC. Not a lot of aroma going on here for some reason. Nutty sweetness with a bit of chocolate and a good citrusy hop that combined somehow like the wondertwins to give it a sourness on the edges of my tongue. At least it got hoppy and dry at the end.

May 19, 2000 Updated: Feb 19, 2003Springfield, PA. Many cask-conditioned beers are flat, though they aren't necessarily supposed to be. Some of the better ones have a richness to make up for it. This one didn't - its a total disaster. Flat and flavorless with only a meek malt presence.

Feb 23, 2007 Draft at the Wayne location. Clear brown body with thin head. Aroma is of sweet malt and some hops. Bitter nutty flavor that had a funky balance to it and odd mouthfeel. Tasted too bitter and the nutty esence was not going well for it.

Jul 13, 2003 Very nice brown ale, very brown in color with a light white bubbly head, lots of sweet maltiness in the nose, very well balanced body, a hint of some nuts in the flavors, slight hint of coffee as well, slight bitterness & dryness in the finish, overall a pretty great brown ale
