Nov 17, 2006 Sampled this hometown brew in the bottle and it delivered as expected. The aroma had a heavy nut flavor and had the flavor was a decent mixture of medium sweetness and mild bitterness. The ale was dry and thin with low carbonation. It had a thick brown color with a light tan head.

Aug 11, 2006 Smells very malty; almost no head. I’ve never really liked the "nutty" character in this style. To me, there’s just too much malts, although this is okay.

Aug 2, 2006 Smooth, but not incredibly impressive. Good flavor but not as much as I would expect.
