4/28/2008: Old Brown Dog has an amber brown color with a beige head that fades away at a decent pace. The malty aroma is sweet and earthly with some roasty caramel. The flavor is also slightly sweet and the roasty and caramel maltiness is quite evident. There is also some light nuttiness (pecan), toast, and a very faint earthy bitterness in the finish. This beer is medium-bodied quite smooth, easy to drink, and enjoyable. However, it isn’t very memorable as there is nothing really unique of special jumps out and sticks.
12 fluid ounce bottle (Best before Jan 08) from Treats in Wiscasset, Maine. Rating #481

Aug 16, 2008 Pours more of a lighter beige than a true brown ale, with a small white cap. Not too much in the nose, some typical earthy british aroma hops, some biscuity malt. More of the same on the palate with a slightly thin body, finishing vaguely chocolatey. Not my cup of tea.
