Feb 25, 2005 Light mahogany pour under an airy off-white head with little lacing. Molasses, caramel, toffee and oats along with roasted malt in the aroma. Dry nutty flavor very apparent with a little malt and bittersweet chocolate sneaking in. Finish was fairly dry but not particularly noteworthy. Thin mouthfeel. Overall, a reasonably good beer but not nearly as good as the real thing from Britian so I’ll probably stick with my English mates and chose a Samual Smiths over this one.

Feb 19, 2005 Thin pour, maple color, hoppy with a strange nutty flavor. I sort of like this ale, not too bad.

Feb 14, 2005 Chestnut brown body with a nice beige head. Nutty aroma, sweet, caramel, buttery, slight chocolate. On the thin and watery side. Flavor was malty, some nuttiness and a little buttery. Not bad but nothing exceptional.

Feb 4, 2005 A final thanks to pjk33 for this last brew I’m about to taste. This was a good one. The brew poured a brown with amber leanings, and possessed a minimal off white-brown head. The aroma was lightly nutty with toasted malt…somewhat sweet. I felt like one of my brother’s hippie friends drinking this. Thought I should be out on a camping expedition. Thought it was great stylistically with a toasted malt flavor and nuttiness. The body was well represented with creaminess and solid medium core. A good brown.
