Aug 6, 2005 Thought it was a little thin, not too much there to sepeak of. It had a brown color that was also nothing special. It wasn’t bad by any means but just kind of mild for a brown. It did have a good carbonation.

Jun 12, 2005 Reddish-brown brew with a thin body. Light nuttiness and an OK flavor, but this just didn’t call out to me.

Jun 11, 2005 A very average beer. What really turn me off here was the very prickly carbonation and a slight metalic after taste.

Mar 6, 2005 On tap at the brewpub. Extremely clear brown color with no head and no lacing. Nutty aroma, almost granola-like. Tongue-tingling for some reason other than alcohol content. Rich body. 15 IBUs.

Sep 28, 2004 Light brown with small head. Faint malt notes with slight nutty aroma. Light mouthfeel with sour finish. Nuts, light hops, and light malt flavors. Pretty much a micro Newcastle...ho hum

May 19, 2004 Usually when I smell a beer, my olfactory senses are shot by the 3rd or 4th whiff. I could still smell the roasted malt/caramel sweetness of Hog Pound Brown at the 15th whiff. Why would I keep smelling the beer that many times you ask? Because the aroma is that good. Hazy tawny body with spare head. Flavor notes include brown sugar and vanilla. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Finish is long, sweetness moderate and bitterness only light (15 IBU). Features Fuggle and Northern Brewer hops. Technically a solid beer. Just doesn’t assert itself enough. To that end, perhaps a few more hops would help.
