| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 19, 2007 I think I may have had an old bottle. Very little aroma even though it was fairly warm. Clear dark amber, with a rapidly diminishing to nothing head. Light flavor without much nuttiness I was hoping for. Some sweet caramel malt and a little bitterness. Smooth, but carbonated palate. Dry finish that was sort of harsh. Just OK. mkofron (155), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 18, 2007 My first brown ale that I was recently reintroduced to at a local pub. Nutty and smooth. Hard to beat for this style. radagast83 (1315), Fairfax, Virginia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 17, 2007 Bottle. It’s been a while but here we go. The aroma was very nutty and had a strong caramel tone to it. The Flavor was suprisingly smooth, with a nice roasted malt and a slight tinge of coffee. trokini (1027), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 16, 2007 Dark brown with a squatty tan head. Nutty and malty aroma with some toast. Lighter than expected mouthfeel. Roasted malt, hazelnuts, pecans, and coffee in the taste. The crystal malt is detectable in the back. Pretty good. venom04 (15), West Virginia, USA

Warm, nutty, toasty flavor with some cereal notes and some gentle english hops. Medium mouthfeel, highly drinkable with a recomforting nutty aftertaste. Very nice nutty, warming brown ale. mfuent1 (15), USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 8, 2007 A personal favorite for filling a pub glass and enjoying while watching British comedies. Great from the bottle, and the one time I had it on tap, even better.
