Aug 8, 2009 22oz bottle. Beer is perfectly clear and a beautiful deep golden brown. Carbonation is fairly low, just a tickle. Aroma is fruity/toasted grainy, perhaps slightly brackish. There’s a warm toasty flavor, somewhat earthy, that goes great with fried onions/potatoes. I really like this beer, especially with food. Yay beer!

Jul 21, 2009 Deep brown pour with hints of red. Nuts, roasted malt, earthy hops, and maple on the nose. Slightly sour, caramelly malt, and light toasted malt as well. A bit thin and watery but easily drinkable.

Taste is sweet medium malt-maple/toffee/chocolate, nutty, secondary earthy hops, some slight sour fruit, somewhat syrupy mouth feel. Semi-dry finish. The total isn’t quite up to the parts.

Feb 1, 2009 Hey, we have a winner, this is my favorite beer brewed by Oak Pond. Nutty aroma, medium bodied sweet ale with some roast, caramel, hazelnut, and chocolate come through in the malts.

Jun 20, 2008 Clear brown color with a ring of white foam. Interesting aroma of caramel and nuts. Good flavor of caramel and nuts, the malt feels very nice. The body is light with an oily texture and gentle carbonation. An interesting brown ale.

May 20, 2008 My Bottom Line:
Nutty caramel sweetness and roastiness seamlessly sift into finishing earthy hop bitterness. This is a balanced and highly drinkable Brown Ale.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-Creamy foam tops the clear auburn brown.
-The overall result is quite clean.
-The hazelnut-like sweetness is straightforward, but quite pleasant.
-The mouthfeel is well rounded for this strength.
On tap at Bray’s Brewpub.

Dec 9, 2007 22 oz bottle poured dark brown with a coco brown head that goes to lace quickly. Aromas of toasted malts and sweet carmel .mouthfeel is a little lite for me. Flavors of coffee , toasted nuts with a nice light hoppyness in the finish . Not a bad brown ale
