A good roasted nut aroma. A dark bronze color with no head. This beer is thin and a little bitter. It offers a mild nutty taste that fades smoothly.

12oz bottle via trade with slob! - Thanks Bert! - Pours dark brown with a creamy tan head that stays pretty well and laces the sides of the glass a bit. Aromas of caramel malts, nuts, and just a touch of chocolate. Flavor is earthy with nuts, caramel, and a bit of chocolate. Some roasty notes as well with a smooth palate. Just a little sour at the finish. Otherwise a solid brown ale. Would be great for a session ale.

A very enjoyable brew from the Troeg brothers. Very nice head. Kind of an odd aftertaste though.

I really enjoyed this. A little low on the alcohol. But for a brown ale the balance between sweet and hop is right on. I would like to take this on the trail.

Bottle Pours a clear deep mahogany. Nice thick tan head and heavy sheeting lacing. Soft woody malt aromas. Some dusty musty, notes as well I cant put my finger on. Flavors are quite subdued and uninteresting. Lightly roasted malts, wody, slightly sweet, with a wierd cardboard bitter aftertaste. Actually a bit surprised to see this w/ such a high style percentile. Not bad over all though

I expected more, rather bland for a nut-brown, not terrible by any means, just not what i hope for from troegs

Pretty decent nut brown. Not super nutty, but brown. I could definitely drink a few of these with a nice meal or just hanging around. It isn’t anything over the top but I would say try some out
