Faint dusty malty nose, starts out smooth, somewhat spicy and earthy, but is thin and not exciting. Just average.

Bottle. Reddish brown color with quickly fading head. Still, lots of aroma, like burnt nuts. Unimpressive at first, but flavors developed as my hand warmed it up, so probably just served too cold.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a deep reddish brown color with a light tan head. Nice nutty aroma along with some malt, both of which also come through in the taste. Creamy mouthfeel. Very enjoyable.

Interesting nut brown. Deep smoky malt flavours in the nose, also detect some molasses and alcohol. The flavour isn’t quite as deep with the typical nut brown style. I enjoyed the nutty flavour against the hoppiness not often found in a nut brown.

i was expecting something better. mouthfeel not tremendous. kind of a metalicy flavor with the nutty maltyness. far too thin with little depth.

Bottle. Bottled on: 06/04/04. Ruby pour with small sandy head. Roasty, nutty and somewhat sour aroma. Caramel aromas make an appearance by the end of the glass. High level of carbonation really gets in the way of the flavor. The maltiness is apparent but not overpowering and the nuts seem to be there only in trace amounts. Some bitter hops in the finish. Too thin.
