Nov 6, 2006 500 ml bottle thanks to janka. Not a big brown ale fan, but this was pretty darn good. Great head atop the brown liquid. Aromas were ok, some metallic but otherwise malty and chocolatey. Flavors were better, Chocolate and other roasty malts. Nice bitter finish. Pretty darn tasty

Apr 30, 2008 Brown colored, moderate to large head, solid lacing and retention. Aroma is fairly hoppy with notes of chocolate, caramel and roast. Pretty big aroma and flavor. Clean, somewhat bitter mouthfeel. Big flavors, nice balance, not a lot of complexity. Enjoyable brown though.

Jun 10, 2007 A dark brown appearance with a roasted nut and chocolate aroma. The flavor consists of nutmeg, dark chocolate, and coffee. A dry slightly alcoholic finish. This seemed to walk the line between a brown and a porter. A nice one indeed.

Jun 18, 2008 Bottle. This one took me by surprise. A hoppy brown ale. Aromas of piney hops & some maltiness. Pours a very nice caramel colored brown with amber hues. Very long lasting head that never dissapated. Hops dominate the malts here. More a IPA IMO than a brown. Nice hop flavor throughout with malty backbone to add balance. Light fruitiness after initial hop bitterness. Another great beer from mikkeller

Jul 31, 2008 Thanks to Bman1114VR for the bottle! Dark brown pour, thick khaki head and decent lace. Toasted malt and a surprisingly hoppy nose. Toasted malts up front, chocolate and hops on the finish. lingering roast flavor. Unique and well balanced.

Jun 10, 2008 This brown ale poured into a dimple mug with a creamy tan head and a caramel malt aroma. The flavor is chocolate and roasted malt with a bitter hop finish. The brew is quite complex yet well-balanced. A pleasure to drink.
