Full of roasted malt flavors. A rich finish and smooth start, this brown ale has been around since 1995 and gets better with every pint.

This beer has been around for a long time and I've had it many times out of a 12 oz bottle. I always thought the carbonation was a little too high for the style. I recently had it on tap and it seemed much improved. The carbonation was lower, which seemed to add a slight creaminess that gave the flavor more depth. The beer poured translucent brown with hints of caramel and molasses. Overall a very drinkable brown ale.

Poured from a 12 oz can into a pint. Comes out cola brown with a nice head that retains. Smell is light and sweet, hints of molasses and grain. Balanced flavor profile, sweet at first, then middle is more of the roasty brown ale notes, finishes pretty clean and bitter. Feel is light in the stomach, easy to drink a few. Overall a very tasty brown ale, but it's a bit too light.

a. Hazy brown color with 1 finger of cream colored head. The head disappears quickly. Sediment appears to be in the beer.

s. Solid malt and walnut aroma. Inviting.

t. Very watery nutty taste. Malt and nuts.

m. Gritty.

o. This beer lacks flavor - very watery. The taste is not bad, just lacking power. Good beer.
