Jan 12, 2008 Poured from 12 oz. bottle into recommended dimpled mug. Pleasant levels of the roasted malts and light chocolate aromas come across. Not much in the way of a lasting head or lacing. The beer drinks lighter and has a less heavy and clinging mouthfeel than many brown ales. I really enjoyed the balanced flavors and nice, not overly dry and bitter hoppiness at the end. As a previous rater noted, theis a brown ale that could be sessioned, making for a nice change of pace.

Dec 28, 2007 Does ’deep cover brown’ mean that it’s actually not brown at all? This watery thin, reddish ale was weak and very unpleasant. It abides by the commercial description as it is light bodied and slightly sweet but it is diluted and easily forgettable.

Dec 27, 2007 Pours a very thin and light brown. Thin head. Light aroma of molasses. Not much flavor to it, I thought it was a weak brown ale.

Dec 3, 2007 Bottled. Clear dark brown colour with a low white foam. Clean aroma of toasted malts, nuts, grass and berries. Toasted malts, dark bread and berries in the clean flavour. Medium bitter finish of nuts and toasted malts. Uhum...

Nov 30, 2007 Unambiguous molasses aroma with wheat bread underneath. Clear light brown, with a thin yellow head. Very, very grainy, of weak to medium strength. Grassy cilantro finish. It’s very drinkable with a low alcohol content, but it is fairly unremarkable. Low end ABA, IMHO.

Nov 17, 2007 Part of a beer of the month club. Pours a dark brown with a small, off white head into the pint glass. Scents of nuts, brown sugar and spice. Very doughy, biscuity and malty with a medium mouthfeel and nice finish. Middle of the road brown ale.

Nov 2, 2007 A decent brown ale. Aroma was dark malt, toffee and nuts. Pour was a dark brown with a one finger tan head. Taste was nice. Burnt and roasted malt, caramel and nuts with decent carbonation and a nice chewy aftertaste.

Oct 30, 2007 12 oz bottle at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Reddish brown color. Good sweetish aroma with lemon, honey and some chocolade. Honey, minerals and some chocolade malt in the flavor. Biscuity and chocolatey finish. Somewhat watery and disappointing flavor.
