Commercial Description:
Pandan Ale represents a major advancement in Asian style beers. It is a complex brown ale brewed with crystal, chocolate, and honey malts. We have also given it a Southeast Asian flair by adding palm sugar and pandan , a nutty and fragrant leaf. Pandan, also known as bai toey (Thai) and lá dua (Vietnamese), is considered an essential ingredient to Southeast Asian rice dishes and cakes. This is a truly unique and flavorful beer that you will enjoy. Pandan Ale is a dark, full-bodied beer that will complement spicy Thai and Indian curries, as well as savory Filipino and Indonesian stews.

Bottle from Liquid Solutions. Pours a very dark brown with a three-finger beige/tan head. Aroma is spicey/nutty. Near medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is roasted malt with some sort of earthy flavor. Rather different - like green/earth. Finish is fairly clean, and definitely not sweet. Not all that bitter either. But the interesting flavor is enough to make this a very tasty beer.

bottle. thanks Mike & Darryl. Pours a deep dark brown. Roasty aroma with strange spice aroma, I suppose Pandan? Notes of roasted malts, chocolate & strange leafy, wet cardboard taste. Fuller mouthfeel. Strange spice to have in a beer but different & glad to have tried

From Skyview. What to say, it is a brown ale. Lightly roasted malt aroma with a solid malt body. Drinkable enough and no flaws.

Bottle thanks to scrizzz. Pours a nice clear dark brown with thick tan head. Aroma obvious of toated malts, nuts, chocolate, and some spices. Flavor comes together nicely and makes for a decent brew. Additional flavors of bread, slight sweetness, and finishes pretty dry.

Received 22-oz bomber via trade with 5000. Pours a semi-clear dark brown amber colored brew with a thick beige head that slowly dissipates to a thin off-white head and some spotty lacing. Aroma of roasted nuts with caramel and Munich dark malts, some light chocolate and bread crust. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonation with flavors of toasted dark biscuit bread, roasted nuts, a hint of brown sugar and light chocolate. Finish is semi-dry with a toasted dark malt aftertaste that slowly disappears.

Bottled as Laughing Buddha Pandan Brown Ale... Poured a deep rosy brown with a beige head. Rich, toasted aroma with chocolates, nuts and mile spices complementing some barley. Easy feeling palate with flavors similar to the aroma but a really nice sweetness and roasted finish to balance it all out. I need to get more brews from these guys.

(22oz bottle) Pours a mahogany body with a small beige head. Aroma of cocoa, palm sugar, toasted bread, and nuts. Flavor of roasted malt, dark fruit, light chocolate, and caramel.
