Steib (536), Queen Creek, Arizona, USA Dec 13, 2004 Nice medium brown color with a tan head. Mild nut brown aroma, some malt notes. Does have a little nutty flavor. Medium bodied, fairly smooth. Tasty but nothing to get to excited over. bigbeersrule (52), USA Oct 1, 2003 A full bodied nut brown ale, makes Newcastle taste like water. This has to be the darkest nut brown I have ever seen. Very nutty taste and a clean beer. Sorry nut brown fans, only available on draught. JohnC (1759), Mission Viejo, California, USA Aug 23, 2003 I had this on draught at Stone's 7th anniversary party.
Appearance: It poured a hazy brown color with a small tan head.
Aroma: It had a slightly toasty aroma, but nothing that would impress you.
Flavor: Being that this is a brown ale, I was expecting something a little more malty. Maybe a little more toasty. Maybe a little more anything. All in all, it was pretty mediocre. Nothing special argo0 (6231), Washington DC, USA Feb 24, 2003 Nice clear brown body with medium tan head. Aroma is quite sweet caramel, malty, nutty. Taste is medium sweet, nutty, caramel. Nice beer, but nothing special. Finishes dry. DaSilky1 (1627), San Diego, California, USA Nov 21, 2002 Updated: Feb 23, 2003Reddish brown with a nice thick insulation...Aroma didn't give much but a slice of roastedness.. slightly fruity with a bunch o' nuts..nutty finish..Started weak and grew as it was savored...all in all..a nutty cocoa ambrosia
