Nov 8, 2009 Cask @ The White Horse:
Very easy and malty on the nose. Totally English in its way, something of horse food about it. In the mouth there is some UK style straw-like hoppage playing off of malty richness. It is as smooth as anything, very sessionable. Balanced with maybe a little more weight behind the malts.

Oct 4, 2009 Draft @ Sierra Tap House. Pours a clear, medium-brown color; off-white head with good retention and fine-bubbled lacing; nice pour. Decent aroma of cola and light chocolate; nicely dry but somewhat relaxed. Medium mouthfeel: nicely juicy, citrus bitterness coupled to a cola- and chocolate-centric core; very drinkable, nice hop character; a very hoppy, lively brown. Medium finish: nicely toasty, mineral bitterness and quite dry. Solid stuff here.

Oct 3, 2009 Pours brown with a thin tan head. Smelly of caramel, some spicy hints, nutty. Taste has some resiny hints, some roasty hints and some fruity hints. Not a typical brown ale, but good.

Sep 4, 2009 Tap at Blind Tiger. It’s hard to believe I haven’t had this before, but there you go. A lightly herbal/spicy brown malt nose initially with a little bit of crackery character. Fairly toasty with a little bit of roasted malt astringency on the back. It’s a decent, lean-bodied brown ale, but it’s nothing crazy either.

Aug 28, 2009 Found this 2006 bottle in the back of my beer fridge! Pours a medium brown with a thin tan head. Toasted malt and nuts on the nose with a slight smokiness. Nice nutty flavor with a creamy finish. A decent brown ale.

Jul 27, 2009 Dark copper with a lasting off-white head. Grainy malt aroma with a hint of roasted character. Dry and malty flavour a little roasted and a touch of fruity esters.

Jul 11, 2009 Cask at American beer fest White Horse London. Brown coloured pour with small head. Malty, caramel fruity taste. OK for a session beer but quite forgettable really.

Jul 8, 2009 On tap @ Lures-Crownsville MD-Dark brown pour w/a tan head. A little bit of roasted malt, nuts, some toffee, maybe a little peat. Not really my favorite style, only tried it as I have a friend who likes Browns. Decent example for this style, but it’s still not one of my favs. Short. burnt finish.
