Jun 20, 2008 A very odd aroma that is stangly familiar but i just cant put my finger on what it is. Aight brown pur with an off white head and lace. A very bland flat flavor that just lacks any pizazzaz. No off flavors just nothing at all special about this beer. A tad thin and watery. A drinkable beer but nothing special at all.

Jun 19, 2008 Thanks to Brewdad for a crack at this. Poured a dark brown (duh). Nice malty sweet nose. Flavor is nutty, little bit of chocolate and some spice (pandan?). Fairly straight forward, but definitely one of the better brown ales I have had.

Jun 4, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clearish, dark brown body with a small, wispy, off-white head.
Smell: Mild aroma of dark malts, chocolate, and discarded nut shells.
Taste: Dark malts rounded out by a sweet nutty character. A few well-placed drops of chocolate. Vague dark fruitiness. Lightly spicy, earthy bitterness. Then, it’s back to the nuts, baby! Sweetish finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: I’ve been waiting for so many long years for a pandan beer the hit the market, and Laughing Buddha really delivered!

Jun 3, 2008 22 oz. bottle - opaque brown with off-white head; sweet and grainy aromas; medium body and very sweet; pandan addition is very interesting and gives it a leafy/grainy feel; slight caramel flavors and a fruity kick; definitely on the sweet side of brown ales and one i need to be in the right mood for

May 31, 2008 A dark brown appearance with a beige head. The aroma contains some caramel and nutmeg. A huge herbal presence, the pandan? Who knows. The flavor is also herbal and has a cola like flavor. A strong nutty presence with this one. Overall it was different for sure but pretty good.
