Pours brown with an off white head. Smells nutty with some yogurt and cookie dough present. Taste is the same.

Dark cinnamon brown color with a fleeting white head. Light malt aroma. A bit or malt sweetness but very thin and washed out.

1/2 pint at the MSBF. Brown orange, tan head. Sulfur aroma. Thin malt, harsh hops.

Sadly there is no picture of the label for this one, and it probably has the best Long Trail label. Hit the Trail, right on. This is a fairly decent nut brown from what seems to be a fairly new brewery (or did they just finally get distribution in NJ now?). Definitely gets better when its a little warmer. Not a load better, but enough.

[draft at MacGregor’s - Henrietta, NY] Nice brown color with a thin white head. Slightly sweet and caramelly aroma. The taste is very smooth and gets smoother and more well-blended as it gets warmer. Not too bad, but a little watery.

as far as brown ales go - this is pretty damn good. I’m not a big brown ale drinker but this beer is VERY smooth, a little sweet, and offers a nice long sweet finish. A bit heavy though - I wonder what the alc% is?

Poured from bottle with an interesting, kinda mahogany color. Malt/Rye aroma, more noticable in the flavor. A little thin at first, but flavor definitely improves as you drink. Enjoyable brew.

Pours ruby brown, with a thin quickly dissapating head. Aroma faint, slightly fruity/chocolate smell. Taste is initially thin and crisp, with a malty bitter aftertaste. Smoothes out (the claim on the bottle) as it warms. A good soild beer.
