Jun 29, 2008 From bottle. Pours a surprisingly light colored maple with fluffy carbonation. Aroma of nuts, malt, and roasted notes. Palate is medium, smooth and lightly carbonated. Very refreshing. Flavor is initially malty sweet, with hints of chocolate and walnut, then gives way to upfront hops with more intense roasts. Overall, a very nice brown ale with great flavor. The body was a tad light, but a fine offering from Sam Smith.

Jun 27, 2008 Very nice Nut Brown Ale. I found it slightly bitter but very tasty. So far I am very impressed by Samuel Smith’s in general!

Jun 23, 2008 So smooth and easy to drink. I wasn’t sure to expect since I’ve recently had some brown ales with a strong alcohol taste but this was something I could drink for breakfast with my pancakes anyday. Bought a single from my local store but will definitly pick up the 4 pack.

Jun 17, 2008 Malt. This brown ale speaks of malt the minute the foil is off. Its clean and refreshing. The hops are a little weak but the germ soaks through the barley and with a hint of walnut, it turns its Arizona tint into a Colorado Mountain.

Jun 13, 2008 Pours a red/dark brown with a frothy head that leaves a lot of lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, nut, and a wine scent. Taste of coffee, roasted nuts, with a bit of a bitter bite at the end. Dry mouthfeel, with medium carbonation. A nice brown ale.

Jun 13, 2008 Pours a dark reddish brown with a nice creamy tan head. Aroma is very malty and fruity with some nutty chocolate notes. Flavor starts very nutty and rich malty and through the finish the fruitiness like raisins become more apparent. Kind of a slight bitterness lingers, but in a good way. Good all around brown ale and a very rich body and creamy mouthfeel.
