Nice balance of noble hops and malt in the flavor. Very easy drinking, no flaws. Decent bitter (this is not a brown ale!). doublebock (197), USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 7, 2005 Very Nice spicy/sweet/nutty aroma. Nicely smooth, and toasty, flavor. Has a decent hop "pop" at the finish. Thanks to Lou18 for the trade! Jine (896), Nutley, New Jersey, USA

I thought this was a pretty fine brown (bitter? debatable?) to my tastes. Forget what you heard about RVB, check their stuff out again. spkldhenlvr24 (466), Newburgh/Buffalo, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 16, 2005 This seemed more like a darker amber to me. Not quite a brown. Pours a clear, amber, brown body with a thick dissapating light tan head. Good roasted malty aroma. Some nice chocolate scents. Flavor is toasted, sweet. Has some good sides and bad sides. Harsh at times. Thin body. Nice beer. Lou18 (1353), West Paterson, New Jersey, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 4, 2005 This was a very good ale. Poured amber/brown, off white head. Smooth with a touch of bitter. notalush (2690), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 18, 2003 [bottled - "Ramapo Valley Copper Ale"] I guess their second attempt at bottling their beers came out better, because this is a pretty decent beer - dark copper with a moderate head and medium carbonation - a little thin bodied, but the flavor is a pretty good mix of nuts and chocolate - mild hop finish - a touch of sweetness - nothing awe-inspiring, but quite drinkable.
