Jun 24, 2002 The pony express has galloped outta town and left some very satisfied customers behind. This brown has far more nuttiness and drinkability than most! It’s almost mild, but that would seem like a backhanded compliment. Absolutely fantastic! God help ’ya if you’re looking to get you’re hands on this. It’s sort of a Kansas thing. Ask Indra (a great trader) to get some for you.

Feb 1, 2001 This is now called the Thunderbolt
Nut Brown ale. I found this to be
a very impressive nut brown, a good deal
better than Newcastle. A def sweet, nutty
flavor was the hallmark of this beer.
Clean and easy drinking.

Jul 20, 2001 Nice brown. Very dark with a nice creamy head and an outstanding nutty chocolatey flavor. Nice balance as well since it wasn’t sweet despite the massive malt flavors. Good brew.

Sep 12, 2002 Doughy aroma. Malty, molasses, coffee and chocolate flavor. Exceptionally smooth. Deep cola brown with virtually no head. Excellent label. Trailing chocolate palate, minimally tart. Excellent and surprising.

Nov 27, 2003 deep brown color, big fat frothy light brown head (one of the darker heads i've seen on a beer other than an imperial stout). aroma is slightly chocolatey with maybe a creamy or milky quality? aroma also has a perfumey/floral quality to it. flavor is slightly roasty malts with a mildly hoppy, slightly roasted finish.

Apr 19, 2002 good nut brown that is very smooth and well balenced. not an overbearing nut flavor, more malty with slight hop kick on the back end. Had this on tap at Old Chicago

Apr 2, 2003 Head is initially average sized, frothy, light brown, mostly lasting. Body is dark brown. Aroma is moderately malty (nutty, caramel, toasted light bread), lightly hoppy (flowers, herbs). Flavor is moderately sweet, heavily bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, lively carbonation, lightly astringent. Nice malt aroma with no grapefruit or pine sap to ruin it. Very good flavor balance, but a bit too far off the bitter end (for the style). Looks great in the glass, lasting head over a rich brown color.
