The is a pretty beer almost an amber/brown color. A well balanced beer that is great for the summer months. Unlike the porter, this is the beer that put them on the map.

milkmandan brought this bottle to hey_kevin’s iowa city gathering. I think my palate might have been a bit shot to be trying this one when I did, so i really couldnt discern the flavors. Pours a light, transparent brown. Yeast and a bit of floral hoppiness come through in the aroma. This was an easy drinking brew, but I also would like to try it again. Thanks Dan.

From a bottle, thanks Milkmandan. The dark orange body was toppe dwith a white head. The smell was earthy mushrooms and moss. There was also some sweet caramel. Interesting for a brown ale. The taste was caramel with some tart oranges. The body was very smooth. I would like to try a fresher sample.

Bottle (22 oz). Pours brown with a small off-white head. Aroma of malts (caramel and nutty) and maybe a tiny bit of hoppiness. A nice, smooth nutty taste- not overpowering, but not weak.

22 oz bottle. Pours a pleasant, clear medium brown. Decent head with good lacing. Sweet, nutty nose, like pralines. Somewhat complex flavor, with malts, light brown sugar and a prevailing woody flavor.A slight hop bitter is noticed in the finish, but the maltiness overcomes it easily. Maybe not a great brown ale, but a good beer none the less.

Draught. Amber color, doesn’t look like a brown to me...maybe they tapped the wrong keg. Good beer but not a good representation of style. Fairly hoppy, too crisp. Not very malty or brown. Dissappointing.

Went down smooth and clean, with a malty, moderately full and dry finish. Just the thing after my walk around Richmond. Nothing to swoon over, but a well made ale.

Nice, it has some overly hoppy tones that makes it much more interesting than a simple plain brown ale. It has a simple sweet yet bitter style that is very appealing. Good amber brown colour, little aroma present, but good overall.
