Oct 27, 2008 Draft. Plain brown with a reddish hint around the edges. Aromas are almond and nutty, with a bright caramel malt and some orange citrus hops lurking in the background. Balanced palate. Lots of chocolate and caramel malts. Short dry finish.

Oct 19, 2008 Tap at Barcade. Deep brown beer with a creamy white head. Aroma is lightly herbal with a bit of light cocoa and caramel. It’s a bit unusual in that there is a lot less of the typical chocolate malt flavour than is typical of brown ale. The result is a lighter and less sweet beer that is easier to drink in quantity. It’s quite an unusual take on the style, but it works pretty well. Lean and fairly crisp sort of like a schwarzbier, but with no roast.

Oct 16, 2008 Tap at Barcade: Pours a slightly hazy brown with a strong tan head. The aroma is toasted and mildly sweet crystal malt, nutty mild cocoa and a hint of coconut. Fluffy body with a solid flavor- hazelnut, cocoa, and toasted notes into a mildly bitter finish. A balanced and well integrated Brown Ale.

Sep 9, 2008 On tap at SPH. Arrived at the table brown with a thin off-white head that lasted through the first two sips and faded to a ring, leaving a spotty lace film after each sip. Pleasant aroma of caramel with some mild spice. The flavor is caramel up front followed by some some moderate hops bitterness and some mild spice. Medium bodied. Very much in the English style. Enjoyable.
