Jun 3, 2008 This poured a clear brown with a slender tan head that didn’t hang around too long. It had an aroma of dark caramel, roasted nuts, coffee, and dark bread. Nice roasty flavor sweetened with caramel and chocolate with a a nutty/earthy bitterness to balance it all out. Good sessionable stuff. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp? Brewery, Michigan City, IN<font size=-1>

Jul 6, 2006 On tap at the brewpub. Served ice cold. Clear brown, on the lighter side. Beige head with some lace. After letting it warm, I caught some toffee and chocolate notes from the nose. The flavor had some of the same chocolate character, with some toasted quality. Mought feel is very watery and thin. Lifeless.

Apr 30, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. Clear dark brown with small beige head. Sweet, nutty aroma, very slight. Flavor is roasty and light with nuttiness, semi-sweet, seems somewhat oxidized cardboard but that can’t be right seeing as this is one of their mainstay beeers, maybe its an earthy hop presence, who knows, not the bartender... Medium body with light carbonation. A farely uninteresting brown with a funky flavor.

Jun 26, 2009 Sampler poured draft at the brewpub (Michigan City, IN). Pours a dark copper and brown, iced tea, with decent whitish head that settles to a film. Aromas are light sweeter dark malts, faint nut and brown sugar. Initial is a bit different, tastes are bitter up front, with a bit of oat and toasty malt on the backend, bitterness, light sweetness mixes in there. A decent brown ale, a little underbodied but not bad.
