Had it on draft on 6/1/2005 in Babe’s Resteraunt. It was the only thing worth mentioning there. Deep clear brown color with Malty flavor and flat syrupy mouthfeel. It wasn’t horrible but didn’t stand out.

Brownish red with a nice fluffy head. A little roasted nuts and caramel in the aroma. Nutty caramel malt flavors with an interesting off finish - seemingly a little astringent perhaps.

Bomber poured a clear reddish brown with a lingering ring of amber foam. Aromas of carmel, nuts, light cocoa, light fruittiness and a hint of earthiness. Palate was light to medium bodied and crisp with a smooth dry finish. Flavors of carmel, cocoa, light nuts and a hint of spice with a smooth dry malty finish.

22oz bottle. Auburn brown color with a small off white head. Caramel, diacetyl, toast aroma. Earthy metallic hop characters. Buttery sweet malt flavors, mild breadiness. Lingering sweetness in the finish, somewhat nutty. Mouthfeel is light.

Brownish-amber. Huge off-white head with copious lacings. Brown sugar malts with a northwest bitter hop flavor. Pretty hoppy for a brown. Also feels like a much higher abv than listed on this site. Maybe re-formulated? Pretty bold for a brown ale.

On tap at Skagit River in Mt. Vernon, WA--Poured a light brown body with next to no head. Nutty, mildly hoppy and caramel nose. A little thin, but highly drinkable.

A nice brown. I’d almost call it a northwest brown. A little more hops than an English brown, but just a slight tinge of hops. Not quite the body or sweetness of what I’d consider the quintennsential (spelling?), but a good brown nevertheless.
