Dec 26, 2005 Bottle. Poured a deep brown with an inviting tan head that quickly diminished. Milk chocolate, caramel, light hops, and hint of cherry in the aroma. The flavor was toasty, with milk chocolate, grass, and a hint of cherry again. Medium body. Very nice!

Dec 22, 2005 Updated: Dec 29, 2005Clear brown beer with a small tan head and a bit of lacing. Faint aroma of toasted nuts. I had low expectations going into this considering the idiotic label, but found it to be a fairly good brew. Flavor is nutty, malty, and roasty, with a bit of chocolate, and a good hop presence. Highly drinkable and enjoyable. Definitely has a brown ale character, and a nice take on it. Enough alcohol to make it interesting after a couple. $7.99 for a six pack at Broudys, Orange Park FL.

Dec 21, 2005 Bottle. Aroma of chocolate. Tastes a bit like malt, chocolate, and nuts. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I had this beverage, but it was pretty good.

Dec 21, 2005 Bottle. I must start by saying the label is really cool. Pours a murky brown with a thin tan head. Aroma is pungent, malty with a little chocolate milk. Taste is of malted milk chocolate with some earthy nuttiness as well. A little sugary. Thin but lively mouthfeel. Very easy drinking brew. Not my favorite style, but this is good.

Dec 17, 2005 Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, blankboy & tupalev - courtesy of HogTownHarry. Ruby-brown with a small tan head. Aroma is quite malty & toasty with a hint of chocolate. Flavour is typical for the style - nutty malt, some chocolate - while the finish is a little sour.

Dec 16, 2005 12oz bottle from Fordest..Thanks Sean! Pours a dark brown color with a light beigish head that receedes leaving lacing. Nutty aroma with some light malt and caramel. Nice thick mouthfeel right away. Lots of nuts and caramel malt, some brown sugars, and a hearty bitter finish.

Dec 13, 2005 Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow & tupalev -- courtesy of HogTownHarry Pours a clear dark reddish-brown with a small creamy light-brown head. The aroma is that of a typical Brown Ale -- all nuts and malt. Flavour of malt, hops, chcocolate and nuts is a little too mild, it needs more "oomph". Medium bodied. I’m not usually fond of most Brown Ales but this one is pretty good.

Dec 13, 2005 What do you get when you cross a Brown Ale with an IPA? Winterbraun!
Well hazed, deep copper/brown with a small, tight & creamy khaki head. Floral soap notes under initial grapefruit hops. Herbs and lactose ebb and flow. Watery malts start the flavor semi-sweetly, but there’s enough hopcit to keep me interested. Spicy finish with a happy touch of alcohol. Yay!
