Jun 20, 2008 Pours amber / brown with a rich tan head. The aroma has roasted nutty malt, coffee notes and dark butterscotch. Medium / thin body with a light amount of sharp carbonation. The flavor begins with sweet nutty malt, caramel, some cardboard, pepper and a fairly biting aspect. The finish is pretty bland. This was not very enjoyable, but I don’t know if it is the brewers fault since I don’t know the age of the bottle. This will be rerated if I can get a known fresh bottle.

Jun 8, 2008 On tap at Bar Louie (Tampa, FL). Pours a rich mohagany/brown with a tan head. Sweet malt aroma with a hint of hops and slight nuttiness. Flavors include caramel, brown sugar, roasted malts, and hops. Very smooth and drinkable.

Jun 8, 2008 Clear light brown with a quickly diminishing off-white head. Aroma of mild caramel, nuts and toffee. Taste is more of the same, a little thin. Maybe a step up from Newcastle, but nothing to write home about.

May 29, 2008 From a 22 oz. bottle purchased locally. Aroma is malty with a slight hint of roast. Color is brown with some red highlights. Small tan head that fades quickly. Brilliantly clear. Flavor is toasty with hop bitterness. Malt comes through with a little roast in the back end. Fairly dry with a medium body and very balanced.

May 21, 2008 Sweet charcoal aroma. Skunky, wet, moldy vegetation. Deep roasted malt notes.
Woodsy coffee flavor reminesent of a porter. Minor licorice notes. Gets nutty in the finish; walnuts and almonds. some fruitiness comes out as it warms.
Palate is uninspiring.

May 15, 2008 Awesome American Brown Ale. Rich and malty with roated, nutty undertones. Finishes slightly hoppy and sweet - a real treat!
