Dec 28, 2008 Nice chestnut color with a solid walnut colored head. Aroma roasted malt, toasted nuts, and a little toffee. Definitely can sense the english influence here. Flavor similar to the nose...highly drinkable but a bit thin. A good example of the style but not amazing.

Dec 23, 2008 I like this beer, but somehow I feel it is overrated a bit... Nose is nuts and malts. Flavor is the same, but a bit thin mouthfeel. Not bad, just not one of my favorites from Sam Smith.

Dec 16, 2008 Bottle in a gift set from Market Street in McKinney, TX. Pours a nice deep brown with tan head. Aroma is nutty, toasted grains, some fruit notes, caramel, hops. Flavor is very much the same, caramel toasted grains, light sweetness, hops, nice small bitter. Mouthfeel is medium body, high carbonation. Overall, a very enjoyable, easy to drink brown ale.....good stuff!

Dec 15, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pretty mellow aroma, but there is a nice light butternut caramel malt, and a very minor hop presence. Very fizzy, bubbly tan white head on the pour that leaves entirely, fairly light looking with a maple syrup like color, not incredibly appealing appearance. The beer seemed a little off balanced toward the malty side, but this discrepancy improves as the beer warms and a couple subtle flavors come out, light, yet some buttery nut, cookie and caramel malt, and a tingling piny leafy bitterness in the end and finish. This one grew on me slightly as i continued drinking it, still not enamored by it though.

Dec 7, 2008 Pours a rich brown and fluffy tan head. Smells a wonderful roasts almonds and coffee. Tastes of light hops with roasted malts that hold a nutty, sweet aftertaste.
