12oz bottle. Pours light brown with a minimal head. Nutty and malty aroma with some caramel. Smells like it should be very good. Good nutty flavor as the name would suggest, but there just is not enough flavor. I have to keep sipping so as not to forget what it tastes like.

12 oz. Clear, copper-brown with a small head that flees fairly quickly. Aroma of molasses, cocoa and grain. Flavor is hazelnut, chocolate and caramel, as in the commercial description. Finishes with a slightly drier nutshell and cocoa. Light-medium body is watery and a tad too fizzy. Not a bad effort, more body and/or less fizz and this one would be pretty nice.

Bottle. Pours a light mahogony in color with a fizzy tan head. It has a sweet, yet dry aroma of nuts, cocoa, and sugars. This beer has a lot of flavors in the foreground, mostly cocoa, nuts, and caramel, fading into a smoth creamy finish. A decent nut brown.

Tangy, lagerish aroma. Very clear light brown, somewhat stiff head. The label is getting too cluttered. Watery Mars bar flavor - dilute chocolate/vanilla/nuts. Medium light sweet, light coffee bittering. Mouthfeel was a washout - too fizzy and generally thin. Metallic foam. I had higher hopes for this one.

Bottle. Pours an average amber with a nice head. Aroma is red wine, cinammon, clove, and peach syrup. Flavor is sour cotton candy syrup, with weak clove and nutmeg. Average mouthfeel. Too watery; add assertiveness and this will be a great beer.

Great aroma and very nice chocolate, roasted malt flavor. Great appearance too. On the downside, the flavor almost tastes artificial. Overall though I like it and would recommend it.

12oz bottle-pours a foamy off white head and copper color. Aroma is fruity/yeast initially then improves with medium malt-chocolate/nutty, grain/husky. Taste does not quite mesh. Aspirin/chalky, fruity/yeast, medium malt-peat/chocolate/nutty, grain/husky, some earthy hops, artificial sweetener. Thanks jwc215 for picking this out.
