Jun 13, 2004 Draft. Pours copper, with aroma of malt, toffee, brown sugar, hops, and cabernet. Tastes malty, rich, with some hops, brown sugar, and red wine at the finish. Nice balance and a great finish. I put this one up there with DFH Indian Brown Ale as great examples of the style.

Jul 31, 2004 A little lighter than normal, more of a deep auburn. Nose quite peaty, lots of malts to it, some caramel. Very nice flavor, loads of malts, lots of caramel and toffee, big peat character to it, mildly smoky as well. Quite nutty. Finish is long, with just a hint of sweetness hanging around the mouth. Quite enjoy the palate on it, good creaminess as well. One of the better browns I’ve had.

Feb 17, 2006 Updated: Sep 18, 200922 oz bottle. The beer pours a Red-Brown color, light tan head. Roasted, nutty, and sweet aroma. Slightly caramel and brown malty flavor. Hyped up, but quite enjoyable.

Dec 28, 2005 Deep reddish-brown color, generous tan head. Aroma is strong, exclusively caramel. Taste is sweet, balanced malts and hops, caramel, hint of honey and something else I can’t figure out. Good mouthfeel, medium-bodied, slick, frothy. I really like this beer.

Mar 4, 2006 A wonderful brown ale. Nicely carbonated, sweet malts and maybe some caramel in the flavor. The finish was very clean, very enjoyable.

Apr 11, 2008 650ml bottle. Thick and rich brown color. Nice creamy head. Tangy and fruity flavors that I’m assuming come from the Legend yeast work much better in this beer than in the porter. This beer is full bodied, rich, and still remains highly drinkable. Great session brown ale.

Jan 31, 2006 I get the feeling that this beer was supposed to be how it was. However, I liked it quite a bit as it was and will rate it accordingly. A cloudy light mahoghany with voluminous yet diminishing head. Aroma of caramel, biscuit, mild acidity, and cherries. Yes, cherries. Taste distinctly fruity and sour with an ending toffee sweetness and cherry-doughy aftertaste. Like a brown mixed with a flemish sour and achieving a juicy tart-sweet balance. Very nice.
