Dark red/brown body with a small fast falling cream head. Toasty nose, caramel and lots of nutty malt quality. Big toasted malt start, nutty, big melted caramel character, a bit woody in the finish.

very smooth beer that pours to a dark brown, light, white tan head to it, has a nice sweet malt taste to it, moderately thick in body and easy to down. easily my favorite nut brown ale

Pretty good, but not the best brown ale that I have had. Has a slightly nutty and chocolate taste, neither taste is overpowering. Not a whole lot of aroma and very little head. An above average brown ale. There are better.

Bottle, 550 mL. Brown with a tan head. Aroma of roasted chocolate malts. Softly carbonated. Lacks some bite, but good enough.

De mémoire. Brune avec un col léger. Parfum de houblon, de noix et d’amande. Le goût de noix est renversant, on le dirait ajouté... Mais le mariage est excellent, l’amertume de la bière et celle du goût de noix. Il y a le lait de noisettes. C’est une bière originale et très bien faite.

Disappointed at the nose of the beer, I was hoping for a nice nutty aroma to get me into the beer. A good amount of beige colored head on the pour that is absolutely delicious. It is a bit watery, as others have said, but aside from that the flavor is really good. Heavy, nutty flavor that gets stronger as the beer warms a bit- in the future I will let this brew warm a bit before drinking it. Roasted, nutty flavor finishes well and stays for a bit. Enjoyable brew that is easy to drink.

This beer has a great aroma, good taste but a bit of an alcoholic finish. Overall very good and enjoyable. Easy to enjoy!

ABV: 5% RateBeer rating: 84 Calories: estimated at 220 C Volume: 18.7 Glass: Dimpled Mug Purchased at: West Trenton Wine and Liquor Price: $3.25 Consumed at: home First Impression: Not a fantastic beer - rather light, not watery, but simple. Aroma is leather, earth, and serious hay — like a day at the farm. Visuals are a nice clear ruby brown with a sustained off white head. Taste is maybe the weakest feature, and a shame at that. Thin, muted, and a bit shallow. No discernible complexities of flavor, like ones you might expect in a brown ale, as from roasted or chocolate malts. Palate is crisp, dry, with a soda mouthfeel. Taste does not linger for long after, and doesn’t do much during a taste. Second Impression - it’s very sad that the same brewer that makes the Oatmeal stout does such a poor job of this. Thin, weak, sad. Aroma: 4 out of 10 Visuals: 3 out of 5 Taste: 4 out of 10 Palate: 2 out of 5 Overall: 12 out of 20 Address : <http://beercritic.wordpress.com/>
