| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 21, 2007 Beautiful ruby brown in color with a gorgeous head that looks deceptively like root beer. Wonderful malt aroma. Decent carbonation on the palate and a nice roasted flavor with bitter coffee notes as an aftertaste. I found a new favorite! drawde (115), San Francisco, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 18, 2007 Light nutty aroma; smooth, flavor is nuts and cherries; dry finish; really nice.
[compared with Big Sky Moose Drool Brown Ale]
The Moose Drool is more aromatic, more chocalty, and sweeter. The Samuel Smith’s is lighter, and has fruit flavors. Dedollewaitor (3764), Odense, Denmark

| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 11, 2007 One of my favs, a classic brown that doesn’t try to strech the aroma boundaries. A average head with cloudy body that busts out the nutty earth that is brown sugar meeting up with an oak tree. thechandler (271), Morgantown, West Virginia, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 10, 2007 Pours a deep dark brown with a slightly sweet aroma. Thick but quickly dissipating head. Taste is absolutely nutty. Without a doubt the most nutty beer Ive ever had. Almost to a fault but not quite. Aside from that, its very sweet and mellow, and malty. But, without a doubt, nutty. Overall, very good if you like full flavored, nutty dark brown ales SHIG (2044), Aviano, Italy
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 10, 2007 Bottle: Poured a reddish brown with short brown head. The aroma was a sweet nuts and tingly hops. The taste is dry nutty malt. mansquito (842), Boston/Philadelphia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 4, 2007 Quickly dissapating head that leaves thin lacing. Clear brown, carbonated body. Smells of honey and nuts. There is a kind of branyish taste, which is a little sweet. There are definately a bunch of malts in the taste along with the obvious taste of nuts. It leaves a noticable aftertaste, but that’s ok. One of the weirder brown ales I’ve had.
