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.

Feb 8, 2009 Pours a light copper brown with a thin head. Aroma is light nuttiness, doughy god burnt toast note and slight chocolate and some herbal hops. Malt is a bit bigger int he flavor- more toast, more earthy bready doughines nutty, and charred chocolate malt- solid brown ale.

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.

Nov 28, 2008 Imperial pint @ the Ginger Man. Pours with a large, frothy head that sits on a dark, clear, brown body. Aroma is bark, bitter hops, and a slick maltiness. It all melds well, comes of as a hoppy English forest. Taste. is bitter, bark, prune, and hops. I got to talking with other RBians, so my notes end here. But I thought of this is a fine, slightly more hoppy, slightly stronger brown ale. Nothing to write home about but a damn fine beer.

Jan 10, 2009 On tap at Earth Bread + Brewery. Pours a light brown with a small white head. Aroma of sweet brown malt and roasted malt. Flavor of sweet molasses and sweet malt, some slight roast. Just ok for me.
