splink48 (35), Fayetteville, Georgia, USA Dec 6, 2004 Bottle: Medium pour with little head. Tasted smokey to me. I thought it was a well blended brew with a good amount of depth. I really enjoyed this beer. shadey (1340), Rochester, New York, USA Mar 26, 2006 Dark ruby color with a creamy ring around the top. Spotty lacing. Aroma of butterscotch is really nice. Flavor is a little creamy and sweet. The butterscotch reappears. A nice little ale. Quite nice. shrubber85 (2584), Honolulu, Hawaii, USA Mar 11, 2006 Bottle. Sweet butterscotch malt aroma. Cloudy reddish brown color with small head. Slightly sweet butterscotch malt flavor but not nearly as sweet as the aroma would lead you to expect. Very light hops finish with smooth buttery aftertaste. A interesting brown ale - I really enjoyed it - but as the other ratings state - if you don’t like butterscotch - avoid this beer. Probiere (992), Iowa, USA Mar 14, 2005 Brown/light ruby color, good calrity. Smell cocoa, coffee, dry nuts, mint, biscuit. Taste: chocolate, toast, dry nuts, coffee. Finish toasty and nutty. Not a brown ale at all, but I enjoyed the malt interplay and it was very clean tasting. I liked it. brigg (139), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA Feb 9, 2008 (bottle) Clear, dark amber body with a big rocky head. Aroma is mildly sweet, roasted malt, and some hops. Flavor is very malty, slightly sweet, with some hops. Chocolate flavor also, and a dry finish. Medium bodied.
