| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 28, 2007 I’m not a big fan of several other New Glarus beers I’ve tried, but in the several instances I’ve tried Fat Squirrel, I feel it is a pretty solid, true-to-style beer that is quite drinkable.
Appearance is a dark amber, and is quite attractive with good head retention.
Aroma and taste are both of a fairly assertive caramel malt flavor with a hint of hop bitterness balancing things out.
Mouthfeel is full-bodied, but not very sticky. I found this beer quite drinkable. Unlike New Glarus’s Yokel and Spotted Cow, I’d recommend this beer. troyc (1175), Lubbock, Texas, USA

Medium mouthfeel. Dry caramel notes are dominant, but the beer is balanced. Creamy texture. A very enjoyable brown ale! spector (906), Lancaster, Ohio, USA

Aroma is slighlty nutty with a bit of roasted malt. Nice chocolatey brown ale with the faintest hint of blackstrap molasses in the finish. A comforting and nostalgic taste in this well made brown ale. ross (1709), weddington, South Carolina, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 11, 2007 Bottle from Ryan. Thanks. Pours out brown in color without much of a head. Smell is heavy on the roasted malts with some sweet sugars as well. Taste is rich and malty with a nice caramel flavor. Pleasing, easy to drink, and somewhat refreshing. Not a bad beer at all.
