The flavor is moderately-to-heavily sweet with a short, lightly sweet finish.<P>
The body is light, the texture is watery and the carbonation is soft.<P>
Flat, watery... no junk in the trunk.

Mar 15, 2004 Brown-amber body and off-white head. Sweet caramel and butterscotch in the nose. Flavor is also sweet with toasty caramel malt and a hint of chocolate. Medium body. Not excessively chalky, the death knell of many brown ales. You gotta love the name. But still, it's just a standard, well-made brown ale and I can't get too excited about that.
