May 13, 2007 Attractive, dark brown appearance with a medium size head and good lacing. Caramel malt aroma with a hint of toffee, but lacking the smoky qualities that help define the style. Fairly sweet, malty taste with flavors of dark bread and ripe fruit. Understated hop profile. Medium-bodied, modestly carbonated mouthfeel that is very easy on the palate. Long lasting finish.

May 2, 2007 Bottle thanks to ElJefe: Pours a clear bright copper amber with a thin, frothy tan head. Aroma of really earthy, muddy, peaty character without much smoke and some toasted pale malt. Body starts with a fuller caramel malty sweetness with some light fruity complexity and more earthy flavor. NIcely balanced and fairly authentic.

Apr 25, 2007 On tap at the speakeasy. Pours a dark amber with a thin to non-existant white head. Aromas of caramel, burnt toast, brown sugar, and malts. Flavor is malty and nutty with a pretty smooth finish. Nothing exciting, but I got to keep the glass which made it worth the 4 and a quarter.

Apr 25, 2007 22 oz. brown bomber bottle. No freshness date seen. Poured out a deep garnet color, with a minimal eggshell colored head. Head faded quickly, but left a decent lacing in the glass. Aromas are of caramels, burnt sugar, sweet 2-row malts, minimal hop aromas. Flavors are of caramel, some toffee, graham crackers, earthy hops at the end. Decent mouthfeel, medium body. Finished slightly sweet, but well balanced. Decent beer overall.
