Jan 8, 2008 Pours a deep brown with a moderately thick light tan head. Aroma is very sweet and is pretty apparent about the hazelnut. Smells like a barista poured some syrup in my brew. Taste follows suit - very sweet syrupy hazelnut backed a basic brown ale malt base. Decent, but not really my thing.

Jan 8, 2008 Bottled. A hazy deep brown beer with a big and quite persistent creamy beige head. The aroma is roasty and nutty, enough malty, with some hoppy notes. I feel some toasted bread too. Interesting flavour, lots of hazelnut, some chocolate. Smooth, creamy, with medium body, lively carbonation, and a light bitterness in an enough long finish. Less hoppy than expected. After all I find it enough well balanced and tasty.

Jan 8, 2008 I was pissed at this beer because it was nutty enough to get me expecting, but not nutty enough to finish the job! Man, now I really want a super-nutty beer. Rather sweet, almost brown sugary in its smoothness. Light roasiness, and a smooth hazelnut flavor. I just wish there was more!

Jan 5, 2008 On tap at Flying Saucer. Has a dark ruby color with a medium light tan head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is roasted malts and sweet caramel. Some lacing on the glass. The taste is malty with a sweet dry finish. Really enjoyed this one.

Dec 30, 2007 [778-20071020] Bottle. Mildly wet dog and nutty sweet roasted malt aroma. Clear, dark ruby brown body with a quick foamy light tan head. Roasted nutty vanilla malt flavour. Medium body. Very nice and nutty.

Dec 30, 2007 Pours a medium-dark brown with a thick tan head. Aroma is sweet, mostly nuts and coffee. First taste is all hazelnut, but that seems to mellow and be balanced by chocolate and coffee. I really enjoyed this beer.

Dec 26, 2007 Whoa, Nelly! That’s a lotta Hazelnut! Tasty, but strrrrrong on the sweet, nutty flavor! Beautiful complex palate, but I’m not so sure about that zowee-patowee zing-zang nuttiness!

Dec 23, 2007 Dark brown with a red hue to it, has a almost tan colored head that leaves no lacing. Smell, as expected is very nutty, hazelnut and I thought maybe even a cocoa smell to it. Taste is definately full of hazelnut and I notice the cocoa more in the taste than the smell, with a hint of coffee in the finish. Light in body and highly carbonated, this is a good beer that I can see myself having again.
