Apr 2, 2008 Nice gold/amber pour. Nice 2 finger head, dissapates into a very thin lace. Initial taste of copper is there and gone in a second. Gives way to chocolate covered cashews, slightly dry finish. good beer but not a session beverage.

Apr 1, 2008 Pours bright amber into my glass with lively carbonation and a nice fluffy white head.
Smells of caramel, a bit nutty, and kind of like old pennies.
Tastes a little fruity and nutty, with a dash of burnt sugar in the finish.
It’s okay but I wouldn’t go out of my way to try it.

Mar 31, 2008 Monster head in the pour. Not really a fan of the brown ales but it was in the sampler.
Very nutty with a semi harsh choco maltiness. "OK"

Mar 28, 2008 Pours from the bottle very red/orange in color with very small head. Has a very nutty aroma mixed with a sweet malty scent. Flavor was a solid in the malt flavor and finishes with a bit of roasted nut flavor. Overall a good beer for winter months.

Mar 26, 2008 It is prretty thin on aroma but I think it makes up for it over all. Nice deep hue, a good head that gets caught in my mustache pretty well.

Mar 24, 2008 Updated: Apr 5, 2008Pours orange, similar in appearance to New Glarus’ Staghorn. Sweet molasses and hazelnut really take the center stage in the flavor department. I enjoy these in the fall while camping. Pretty decent.
