bottle with no bb date tasted 9/20/09. clear rich auburn brown colored pour with a small tan head and some spots of drippy lacing. the aroma is quite faint and hard to read... some plummy fruit, brown sugar, nuts, grain and a little (yet noticeable) sourness. the flavor follows the same path... dirty, watered down and a little soured on the finish. faint notes of iced tea florals, burnt nut skin ashiness and chocolate are the only additions to the aroma profile. the body is light to medium but the mouth feel is watery and flabby. 5/3/5/2/13/2.8

12 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with Sparky27. Pours a dark brown with a moderate tan head that lasted through the first quarter of the glass and left partial lace. Mild aroma of caramel and fresh top soil. The flavor is similar with weak caramel and top soil. Light-medium bodied.

Tap @ bewpub: Brown with red tints accompanied by a small light brown head. Malty aroma of roasted nuts. The flavor was strong nuts and some chacoal. The body is full and creamy.

Bottle. Pours a dark reddish brown with a 2 finger dense tan head that leaves slick lacing. The nose is caramel, light chocolate and roasted nuts. The taste is roasted nuts, mild earthy hops and light cocoa. Lighter bodied. Not great, but not bad for what it is.

12oz Bottle – Wasatch Brewing – Draper, UT – Easy drinking brown ale this was mild with some nice malt flavors. Very light with the hops this was just plain brown ale. Not to special. Hell it got me through the holidays at the folks.

Definitely brown. Through and through actually. One of the truest colours to its name in this one. What does brown have to do with Bobsleigh? Well not much probably...but fancy names are all the rage. Nuts, bark and coca cola on the nose. Hits the mouth with dry, flat pine and hops. Some sweet mash in the middle but missing the roasted goodness of a solid brown ale. Medium carbonation.

Bottle from Sun Devil in Mesa, AZ. Pours cola color with a tan head. Has that brown roasted malt aroma. Near medium body with frothy carbonation. First hit is coarse chocolate. Chocolate really dominates this one. Malt is hardly noticeable until the finish. There’s some hop spice too. You could sell this as a Xmas ale.
