| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 23, 2009 22 ounce bottle thanks to BrewDad, autographed by the brewer! Pours a dark cherry color with a medium white head. A sweet malty aroma, some citrus hops and toasted notes. The flavor is similar; sweet toasted malts, light chocolates, a pretty strong hop presence with light bitterness in the finish. Nice and easy to drink. bitbucket (2033), Kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 27, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. Pours clear, rubied brown with a lacy off-white head. Caramel-laden floral nose. Caramel and some chocolate with a dry and lightly bitter finish. donfardz64 (419), Wellington, New Zealand
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 7, 2009 Pours dark red/amber, tan head. Aromas of cocoa & pine.
Flavours of roast malt initially, followed with those nice bitter american hops giving a piney kick. Roasty choc finish. mgermani (864), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 4, 2009 Pours a dark mahogany amber-brown with a creamy head with decent retention and some lacing. Aroma is sweet and nutty - chestnut & just a hint of molasses. More of this in the taste - chestnut & cola, just a bit of ginger & teryaki. Good carbonation, and a silky, creamy body. Great, quaffable brown ale for the fall. Yum! OldMrCrow (1190), Seattle, Washington, USA

Dark cola pour with a nice near-white head. Heavy malt aroma, plenty of crystal malt and then some, ample cascade hop snap making this into a pretty characteristic PacNW brown ale. Enjoyable if not outstanding. sdriessen (208), Dunedin, New Zealand
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 21, 2009 Courtesy of Donfardz64! Aroma is of strong maltiness (maltose mainly). Hints of chocolate, cinnamon, spices and COOKIES. Some bready yeast. Quite pleasant, with some fruity hops showing through. Flavours are almost entirely malty at first (like biscuits), with some traces of coffee in there. Have to say I’m not the biggest fan of this maltiness. Mild bitter finish from the hops that give some fruitiness. greig (171), Hamilton, New Zealand
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 1, 2009 Lots of caramel, and sugary sweetness, some slight grain astringency. A nice nutty flavour which is a little swamped by the crystal malt. A fairly average beer - plenty of flavour, and nothing really wrong with it, I just don’t think I’d have another one.
