| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 6, 2009 Bottle via trade. Medium brown color with a small white head. Aroma is nuts, chocolate, and malt. Flavor is nutty and malty with milk chocolate and mild roast. Body and carbonation medium. Decent overall but nothing really stands out. hellbilly (1532), scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 6, 2009 coppery brown pour with an initial white drippy head which fades to last as a film.
notes in the aroma include chocolate, toasted nuts, grain husks and slightly browned sugar (not brown sugar).
the flavor is full of coffee and coffee-like nuttiness along with more chocolate, caramel, toasty malt/grain and a light bitterness on the end. there are some peppery/spicy hops in there as well which help cleanse the palate.
medium bodied with sharp bubbles.... as it sits the carbonation flattens out.
i want to drink this all day...7/3/7/3/15/3.5

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 29, 2009 12 oz. bottle from Woodman’s Food Market in Madison, WI. Pours brownish-orange with an off-white head. Nutty aroma with a hint of chocolate. Good hazelnut flavor. It’s a brown ale so, for me, it’s hard to get very excited but this is still a good beer and one of the better brown ales I’ve tried. iabeerguy (164), Iowa, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 28, 2009 A decent beer. Dark brown pour with a off-white/tan head. Roasted nut aroma with a little smoke/chocolate/coffee tones in it. Nice lacing on my glass. Flavor was good, but not as good as other brown ales I’ve had lately. drowland (1407), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
