BillyM (149), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Feb 19, 2006 Semi-cloudy tan. Mild aroma if hops & sweet caramel malt. Honey-nut-malt taste with soft edges and hints of aplle and grape. Soft taste, a little too soft. webjedi (249), Silver Spring, Maryland, USA Feb 13, 2006 Quite cloudy in appearance, lighter than a Newcastle, smooth taste, but nothing spectacular. No, or very slight aftertaste, light nutty aroma. I would have desired something a bit more buttery, but overall a general series brew if you’re spending the evening at a bar or with friends.
Found little or no head when poured, and whatever head was there settled quite quickly. Slight smoky flavor not caught in the aroma. Tmoney99 (4652), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Feb 9, 2006 Bottle. Pours dark brown with an average off-white head that diminished slowly and produced good lacing. Good sweet roasted malt aroma. Medium body. Moderate well balanced sweet malty flavor with an average finish. Average brew. Brigadier (1211), Chagrin Falls, Ohio, USA Feb 4, 2006 Thick, heavy foamy head over a brown semi -transparent body. Smelled of peanuts. I was able to detect tones of peanuts, oak and celery in the taste. It was a bit watery and thin, but overall very smooth. Not too bad although I doubt I’ll be actively seeking this out again. thegreenrooster (1811), St.louis, Missouri, USA Jan 27, 2006 Pour is a dark brow with a small tan head. Aroma is a nice mix of roasty malts and nuts. Flavor is not so good. Pretty bland and boring. After two good drinks i can detect nothin. Maybe a little malts in there but that’s it. Very light and boring. jcr (1134), Jasper, Indiana, USA Jan 22, 2006 Clear, dark copper pour with miniscule beige head. Aroma if malty, both sweet and earthy. The flavor is slightly sweet with notes of raisin and caramel. Dry mouthfeel from the thin to medium body. Moderate finish. Refreshing. BeerHawk (1175), Huntsville, Alabama, USA Jan 15, 2006 Draft at Sunspot Restaurant in Knoxville. Dark amber color in the glass with a creamy off white head that mostly lasted and produce good lacing. Sweet malts in the nose and hints of fruit. Roasty, milk chocolate, and coffee flavor with hoppy hints. Medium body, sweet, and smooth. RooftopRogue (423), Champaign, Illinois, USA Dec 17, 2005 This beer offers a mild roasted nut fragrance as its aroma. It is the color of moist Georgia clay and has a decent white head. This beer has a nice perky flavor that reminds one of baked pie dough. Even though this beer is relatively thin it has the ability to keep its taste on the palate for a healthy amount of time.
