aracauna (2263), Georgia, USA Nov 20, 2007 Pours a mostly clear red brown with a soupy head that laces nicely. There’s a good nuttiness to the malt profile along with a maple like flavor. The flavor peters out early, but this would be an excellent beer with a few more hops. jcwattsrugger (4272), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Oct 22, 2007 on tap-pours a light tan head and copper/mahogany color. Aroma is sweet medium malt nicely followed by citrus hops (cascade). Taste is sweet medium malt-caramel, nicely followed by citrus/flat hops (cascade and fuggles?) Minimum carbonation.

rusty amber, whispy head, sweet malt and citrus hop aroma, lots of cascade hop flavor, lingering bitterness with a citrus slant, enough grapefruit you could have it for breakfest, not a brown ale<br />

good tan head, nice lace, almost no aroma, lots of chocolate malt and citrus hop flavor, comes out pretty dry at first but sweetens up as it warms and the grapefruit blooms, an interesting combination that works quite well<br />

Aurelius (2547), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Oct 13, 2006 Failry dark, clear, thin ringing head. APA-like AR with pencil shavings. Gak! Gak! this is the most pitiful brown I’ve ever attempted. A mishmash. Chalky, vacant, pine, not sweet, vague plum or cherry. Medium roast with cocoa. hotstuff (3060), Indiana, USA Dec 18, 2003 Draft at Max Lager's in downtown Atlanta. This beer tasted and had a nose more of a Pale Ale than a Brown Ale in my opinion. It had a small sized tan head with fine-medium sized bubbles that were mostly lasting. The body was uncarbonated, opaque with a reddish-brown hue. The nose was moderately hoppy with a bitter and very hoppy flavor to it. The mouthfeel was tingly and hoppy and this was a medium bodied beer.
