Bottle. Pours dark brown (slightly reddish) with a moderate brown head. Aroma is nutty, plus lightly brown-sugar sweet malt, with a bit of roastiness. Flavor is similar elements. Maybe a hint of tartness. A pretty decent brown.

Dec 20, 2009 Reddish brown, light to mid brown cap that was small, bubbly and lives on as a ring. Fluctuating chocolate strength, mild coffee, so-so..., slight leaf and a touch metallic. The taste is watered down. Some chocolate, light hops can be found, maybe a bit of zesty lemon, a bit of pepper. Boring. Pretty easy drinking though.

Short 12oz twist-off bottle . Dark brown color. Tall, rocky, light tan head. Appearance of a light colored porter.
Aroma of Roobios Tea. Light crystal malt. A hint of grass. Flavor of toasted almonds and a touch of cocoa. Smooth and creamy. A bit heavier bodied than expected. I like it. I think the slight tweek could add a bit more complexity. Add some cocoa powder and maybe a hint of chipotle for some hidden heat, might be fun...

Nov 20, 2009 Deep brown pour with a thick white head. A bit of light spiciness and a touch of herbal hoppiness as well. There is a kiss of hoppy spice on the back along with a soft sweet maltiness. Simple, but decent.

Oct 22, 2009 Bottle: Pours an auburn brown with a dense tan film for head. Earthy malts and dark nuts in the nose, along with a cocoa hint. Frothy carbonation. Nice, soft crystal malt flavor. Light notes of toasted cocoa and a late nutty roast character, and the slightest touch of smokiness in the finish. A solid Brown Ale

Oct 21, 2009 Orange-citrus and piney hops up front in the nose but lightly roasted malts do come through with a caramel and mild chocolate character. Is sorrel or chestnut in color, very appropriate for a "nut brown ale". Sweet and nutty with hints of burnt caramel and a chocolate finish. There is the faintest note of acridity lended by roasted barley. Oranges come through pleasantly in the flavor as well. Bitterness is spot on. A solid beer that could be a tad dryer.

Oct 7, 2009 Pours a dark cola brown with a slight red hue. Aroma of chocolate malt with a hint of brown sugar. Very smooth and malty on initial taste. Sweet chocolate malt with hint of sugar and coffee to finish. Quite good.
