| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | May 15, 2007 On tap at Leunig’s Cafe as "Leunig’s Ale". Dusty grain, straw, and old barn aroma. Mild nutty notes and a bit of stale coffee. Light neutral fruit and a bit of dark honey. Dark coppery clear with foamy off-white lacing head. Medium watery body with medium carbonation. Typical brown ale, nutty malt profile with bit of carbonic tang. Very mild neutral fruitiness and a bit of hoppy finish. Mild nutty after but fairly clean. Fine with food.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/20 | Apr 23, 2007 WOULD BE INTERESTING UNDER THE RIGHT CIRCUMSTANCES. WINTER TIME WITH CAKE BY THE YULE LOG PERHAPS. AND SOMEONE SPECIAL. NUTTY, WATERY BURNT CANDY TYPE ALE THAT IS COMMON. THE BEER ISN’T GOING TO INTERFERE WITH ANYTHING ELSE GOING ON.DECENT BROWNY. I AM NOT FOND OF THE FINISH. HogTownHarry (4005), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 8, 2007 Bottle (12oz). Clear deep amber with a small fizzy off-white head. Pleasing sweet bready malt aroma, smells a bit like a fresh brownie. Tastes of grain and cocoa, some straw-like dry hops in the finish. Watery, mostly still mouthfeel, a little harshness in the finish - ehh. 2beerguys (299), North Shore, Massachusetts, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 14, 2007 We were immediately surprised with the color of this ale. It pours a dark amber color with a large, frothy light brown head. Fair lacing follows a mostly diminishing head. Sparkling body. Aroma is of moderate strength malts with molasses notes, and alcohol. Initial taste is lightly acidic, with a light bitter finish. Light on the palate, it has a watery texture with soft carbonation and leaves us chalky on the mouthfeel.
Reviewer’s notes: "Pungent, a lot of malts and alcohol, very dark like a brown"
