pours a dark brown with ruby highlights, small tan head, medium carbonation. Aroma is coffee and hazelnut, obviously. Some malt in the aroma also. Taste is nutty, sweet malt, with a good amount of hazelnut throughout the taste. my favorite hazelnut beer, thus far.

Good dark brown color,small foamy tan head with a good amount of staying power.Malty aroma,mild bitterness as well as a very light hazelnut aroma.Malty taste at the beginning that later turns to a very nicely done hazelnut flavor,mild cocoa or chocolate in between the top two flavors with a nice bitter taste following up them all.The after taste was mostly chocolate with a hice hoppy presence and posiibly just a hint of hazelnut.The brew has a decent feel to it and also a slight gritty side as well.I'd have to say a very nice brew,and it's to bad this was the last bottle they had but the price was nice .99/bottle out of the clearance basket.

Tap @ Frisco Grille (Rogue Wave Weekend) - Deep clear brown, thin tan creamy head. Nose held soft notes of rich hazelnut, brown sugar, with even softer caramel and raisin notes. Flavor was nutty all up in the house with light sweet chocolate and more brown sugar dominating. A light hop bitterness offers up a version of balance, but this take is all about the hazelnut. Light to medium bodied, light carbonation, soft nutty, semi-sweet finish. Decent stuff, but couldn’t drink more then one in a sitting...

22 oz bottle from Windy City El Cajon. I am not a big brown ale fan. But I may have found one I can stand. Aromas were not much to speak of, caramel and some toffee, but the flavors really kicked in. I first tasted the head and the hazelnut actually surprised me. Then in the beer, hazelnut and vanilla and cream. Very creamy and very smooth. But then that familiar Brown Ale taste to finish it off.... I liked it, but it’s still a Brown Ale.

Pours a shiny nut brown colour with a full tan head. Roasted nuts, butterscotch and pancakes on the nose. Full, heavy and creamy nutty flavors on the palate. Sweet chocolate cake like taste with a long toffee finish.

While I am allergic to hazelnuts, it didn’t stop me from enjoying sips of this on a couple occasions. Brown bodied with thinnish head. Hazlenut aroma reminiscent of candied popcorn, a quality that characterizes the flavor as well. Distinct nuttiness, smooth and easy malting, rather thin mouthfeel. Enjoyable in low doses though the hazlenut tastes could overstay their welcome past a glass or 2.
