| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Nov 6, 2009 Aroma is roasted malts, a bit of chocolate, some smoke, and a tinge of caramel. Appearance is a clear brownish/black with a medium sized tan head that diminishes into a soapy film. Taste is roast, malt, wierd metallic taste like the other said. I thought they were just bashing it, but yeah that metallic taste is there. Kind of a dry finishes with a little lingering spice undertones. Overall, It started out good but went down hill from there. Cheers! jsquire (2107), St. Marys, Ohio, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Oct 23, 2009 Dark brown beer with some cola colored highlights. Thin beige head that shrank to a ring quickly. Nose is very nutty and buttery, with some brown sugar and burnt toast. I get a slippery buttery sensation as I drink this. Some dark buttered toast, toffee sweetness, and a funky off raspberry note that odds an odd tang to this. beernovice39 (281), South Carolina, USA
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 4/20 | Oct 14, 2009 Based on the review below my bottle must have been the way this beer was supposed to taste. This is the WORST brown I have had. Finished it is about all I can say....between this and a Diet Coke in the future I will take the diet. joeymacaroni (187), West Chester, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Oct 1, 2009 although the optimist in me wants to like this beer, with its nutty, caramel, and treacle aroma and chocolatey appearance, the taste is way too sour for my palate, and I’ve had a few of them. All were the same. thedm (3836), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Aug 29, 2009 This bottled brew from a rating party at JSquires poured a medium sized head of foamy fine to medium sized tan colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a transparent uncarbonated red brown colored body. The mild aroma was brown malt and Irish Red malty. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of nutty and brown malt. An OK brew just nothing special. drowland (1417), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 12, 2009 Unfortunately I drank this without taking notes and forgot the details... I do remember it being a bit off and overly sour. esjaygee (1537), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Aug 6, 2009 Mahogany with a medium tan head quickly fading to a thin layer. Aroma of diacetyl, nuts and caramel. Taste of nuts, brown sugar, hazelnuts, brown sugar and some not so pleasant sourness. Nasty and off-putting, not a big fan of this one. hershiser2 (914), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Aug 2, 2009 Bottle. $1.80 at Wine Warehouse, Charlottesville. Pours brown with a large fluffy tan head. Aroma os sweet caramel and maple. Way too tart flavor... tastes like sour apples... nearly undrinkable. Bad bottle?
