Aggie80 (708), Michigan, USA Sep 8, 2007 It was what I expect in a brown ale! The deep earthiness of the malts gave this a very satisfying flavor and mouthfeel. ChainGangGuy (2522), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Feb 9, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, medium brown body with a frothy, off-white head.
Smell: Toasted breadcrusts, nuts, and some chocolate shavings. Light English hop notes.
Taste: Sweet, toasty Munich malts with a light nuttiness and touch of chocolate. Very, very light bitterness. Toasted caramel in the finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Pleasant, easy drinking from this brown ale. I’d have drank more than one if I didn’t only have the one bottle. Oh well! n49921 (108), USA Mar 9, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark amber, with a really nice bsicut aroma. Taste is a bit malty, but ends with that nice dry taste. A really nice brown ale. Gmku (240), Asheville, North Carolina, USA Jun 8, 2005 Brownish body, tan head. Caramel malt aroma, bready/cookie-ish flavor/aroma. Sweet. Likeable. dkoonce (880), People’s Republic of Athens, Ohio, USA Jan 22, 2008 Bottle. Pours copper/brown, with a generous tan head that fades to a half-inch. Sweet malty aroma, with obvious caramel and vanilla leaves me anticipating this beer. The taste doesn’t disappoint. Very sweet, with a chocolate, caramel and vanilla flavor that reminds me of a cream soda. Very impressive for such a sweet beer. It balances a sweetness with a fizzy, live mouth feel. JMerritt (1313), Macomb, Illinois, USA Jan 14, 2002 A great brown ale, in my opinion. It has a wonderful malt nose that had me take not 1, not 2, but 3 deep sniffs. Yum. Also had a great hop flavor with more malt. A great brew. johnnysmoke (53), Texas, USA Jan 20, 2008 I’m really surprised by the overall low rating this beer has received. While it’s not as "dark tasting" as I was expecting it did deliver on taste, appearance and flavor. Part of my beer a month selection this is better than the Otter Creek Pale Ale I rated earlier today. I’d drink this again. It had a nice aroma, a sweet chocolate cherry taste, good carbonation Slick (1962), Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA Sep 10, 2003 Dark amber color,small lifeless head that faded fast.Malty sweet caramel aroma.Light malt taste but this brew is heavy on the sweet,sweet creamy caramel,very light hops that don't really seem to come through until the brew warms a bit.the after taste is caramel in a big way,sweet and creamy like a hot caramel roll in the morning.This is a bit one sided for a brew,but i'm a big caramel nut so i will have to go a little extra on the numbers just for the taste.
