Mar 3, 2008 Pours a cloudy amber brown with a nice creamy head. Sweet dried cherries, molasses, and raisins in the aroma. Creamy smoked malt flavor, brown sugar, molasses, and dry finish. Chewy palate at just the right thickness. Well balanced enjoyable beer.

Mar 2, 2008 Ol chub....sounds like a porno name. Lots of malty-roasty-goodness...semi sweet chocolate...maybe even a bit o bourbon? An interesting brew out of a can! one of the few, but usually these few are exceptional!

Feb 29, 2008 From a can (duh), pours a deep dark brown with a large thick head. Nose is strong and pleasant with lots of malt and roastiness. Attack to finish is some of the best maltiness i’ve had with just a touch of peatyness. Very surprisingly nice beer.

Feb 24, 2008 Can. Pours a clear-looking brown color, with a small, beige head. Malty, peaty nose with chocolate and a touch of fruityness. The flavor is sure malty and peaty, but leaves room for some chocolate and bitterness. Full body, and a long, roasted, peaty and sweet finish. I could wish for more fruityness, but for a scotch ale it’s fine. The alcohol is well hidden, leaving it quite drinkable. (080118)

Feb 22, 2008 Can 355ml
Appearance: Visibly carbonated dark brown ale with small yet presentable top.4-
Nose : Solid impression of high self esteem, clean rich malts with smooth saturated alcohol. Walnut accent on side.8-
Flavor/Palate : Medium full boded. Smooth, clean mellow richness. Quiet quality of brown malt. Slightly sticky gently sweetness with right dose of alcohol. Nothing is screaming here . Stoic timeless qualities. Monster ales are fad this ale targets mature beer connoisseur. Old Chub despite its size is perfectly balanced in every aspect. This is main strength of this ale. I found very to no fault. Splendid brew that other should aspire to it.

Feb 22, 2008 Very dark mahogny towards deep red, with a minimal brown head. Aroma has tons of chocolate and caramel and i sensed some smoked whiskey notes aswell. Heavy malt flavor of bitter roasted chocolate and a thick palate from the caramel malts. Alchohol is well placed and the finish is quite dry and bitter almost ashy, again with some smoked notes. Great

Feb 21, 2008 12 oz can. Dark brown body with a thin and fast disappearing beige head. Light roasted malt aroma. Flavor is smoked, malty, chocolate and surprisingly well hidden alcohol. Well balanced and nice.
