May 31, 2008 Dark brown, almost black, with a deep beige head. Full, chewy mouthfeel, yet it went down pretty easy. Caramel, chocolate, bread crust and nuts. Rather wholesome tasting. Bitterness was mild, but there was a little zing there. OK brown.

Apr 22, 2008 Pours a cloudy amber-brown with a creamy light tan head. Caramel, malt and nuts in the aroma. Flavor is similar, with a bit of fruit and hops on the finish. Light and refreshing.

Mar 27, 2008 Pours a cloudy reddish-brown with a dense, frothy, beige head. The nose is of dusty, fruity malt, metal and a faint plastic; not particularly enticing. Light-bodied and thin with assertive, fine carbonation, it finishes fairly astringent and lightly bitter. Similar to the nose with a bit of nuttiness added to the mix, the flavor posseses a phenolic/plastic note that overrides an otherwise pleasant brown. This is my least favorite of the three Oak Creek brews that I’ve sampled.

Mar 4, 2008 Beer from Deaz from TalkNCAA.com
Poured into a pint glass. Darker than I had expected, almost black. No light is escaping this puppy.
First sip was surprising, as it was a bit syrupy and thick. For a beer that’s not over 8% alcohol, this is about as slow drinking as it gets.
It’s not a bad beer, not by any means, but with as many fantastic craft brews that are out there, I doubt I will enjoy this one again.

Jan 5, 2008 12 oz bottle via Hellbilly (thanks!). Pours a clear dark brown with a huge compacted dark beige head. Nose is caramel malts. Taste starts with some caramel, then some biscuity grains, a tiny bit of chocolate and hazlenut. Some floral hops and a bit of spiciness do make an appearance in the aftertaste. Body is light/medium, carbonation is high, a bit too high. Over-all though a decent brown ale.
