Commercial Description:
A light to medium-bodied, slightly roasty English ale. The small percentage of highly kilned chocolate malt adds a touch of nuttiness.

Brown with a thin head. Aroma of chocolate, toffee, and nuts. The flavor is the same with a moderate roast accompanying the chocolate, toffee and nuts. Pretty mild, but very clean and sessionable.

On tap poured a clear reddish color with a small off white head. The aroma was mostly of carmel malt and a slight toasted biscuit. Taste was clean malt with a nice hop balance. A good clean example of a brown ale.

Clear reddish brown appearance. Malty, nutty aroma. Dryish chocolate malt flavor, hazelnut, fairly dry in the finish. A lighter session brown ale, closer to the English style.

Not a very good brown in my opinion. The beer was malty and had a medium brown body with an okay head. This is one of the beers that is in their regular line-up, so it is nothing special.

Clear brown brew with a light/medium body. Nice roasty nose. A nice kick of fruit at the finish.

Clear brown brew with a light/medium body. Nice roasty nose, flavor was a bit thinner than I expected, but all in all a decent brown.

Clear brown pour revealing a very nice roasted malt nose. I felt the flavor didnt live up to the nose though. Confusing hop bite at the end that just threw things off.
