Dark brown in color with a tan beige thin watery head and no lacing. Smell is light but is sweet subtle roasted malt. Flavor is watery and thin malt - not really very appealing - it is just really thin and not flavorful or bold at all. Some malty rubbing alcohol is picked up in the finish. Not very exciting but not wretched.

Jul 8, 2008 Pours a dark reddish brown with a small tan head. Definately has a nutty aroma and is on the sweeter side. The taste is pretty sweet and is pretty nice but the finish is a little too long lasting. Overall pretty good.

Jul 8, 2008 Sour nutty aroma. Dark amber color with some tan foam. Very sweet in the beginning with a sour finish. Creamy palate. Alcohol slightly hidden. This is a over the top brown.

Jul 6, 2008 Maple maltiness. Strong-- almost like a polish porter. Very dark with little head. Lasts in the palate for awhile; it will keep you licking. The hops are drowned by the intense malts, but take a stand in the end. Eventful.

Jul 2, 2008 Distributor beer sample. Nice color, deep dark brown with frothy cream head. Smells like it would be a porter or stout. Smells of chocolate malts. Smooth and slightly (but not too) sweet,, with a nice dry bitter coffee aftertaste. Unlike any other "Nut Brown" I’ve ever had although I guess it’s more of a strong ale anyway. Nice and warming. Nice lacing with the head as well.

Jun 30, 2008 Good mouthfeel and a nutty sweetness. Dark brown, alcohol is warming but otherwise hidden. A drinkable and passable brew.
