bsierra (183), Vista, California, USA May 28, 2008 Updated: Oct 3, 2008 Bottle from the owner Wesley. Pours a very deep dark brown hue. Has a nice tan head that dissapates rather quickly. Nose is quite malty with a slightly sweet toffeeness. Flavor has a light nutty, slightly roasted taste followed by a sweet malt ting. It had good carbonation, maybe a wee bit too much, but not overly done. As it warmed in the glass I tasted more of a coffee like maltiness. All and all not a bad brown ale~
Dogbrick (2260), Columbus, Ohio, USA Jul 7, 2008 Sample at San Diego Brewing Company. Pours dark brown with a thin beige head that recedes steadily. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. The aroma is roasted nuts and malt. Medium-bodied and smooth with flavors of roasted malt, nuts and cocoa. The finish is sweet and nutty with a bit of hops in the aftertaste. Pretty good overall. bluemeow76 (685), Lewis Center, Ohio, USA Jun 29, 2008 On draft at San Diego Brewing Company. Swirly head with think lacing. Malty flavor and aroma. Good for type.
