| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 31, 2009 Poured a coffeeish dark brown. Nose is quite floral and sweet - like some type of candy. In the mouth was more sweetness with some good hops. Almost in IPA territory. Quite a good little beer but quite expensive for what it is. dmac (1449), Toms River, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 5, 2007 Bottle shared above DDC. Poured a dark brown with some red hues around the edges and a medium size foamy off white head. Sweet aroma of malts, honey, caramel and some citrusy hops. Mediium to light palate with a mild chocolate slight hop bitter finsih. Sessionable beer. nearbeer (1834), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 17, 2008 500 ml. A see-through, dark copper-brown brew with a four-finger head that sticks everywhere. Aroma is big hops - citrus, floral, and resin notes. Flavor is similar, with a bit of cocoa and toasted nut flavors able to battle through the hops. Some nice roasted notes finally show up in the aftertaste about 8 oz. into this one. Smooth, near-medium body finishes slightly dry and tingly. Mixed feelings about how to rate this nice-enough tasting session ale. It disappoints a bit as a brown due to the lack of maltiness, but is pretty good if I thought I was in the mood for a heavier APA. baggio (195), norrtälje, Sweden

Dark reddish brown coloured, big pale beige head, light roasted nose with notes of chocolate. Roasted malt, coffee, chocolate and mild hoppy taste with notes of caramel and wood. Strong bitter finish. aracauna (2383), Georgia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 29, 2008 Pours a dark brown with a large head. The aroma has a nice nuttiness, a lot like hazelnuts along with some chocolate. The only problem comes in the flavor where the bitterness turns unpleasant compared to the malt profile in this one.
