look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a pint glass

A: Pours a hazy mahogany brown with a hint of ruby. There is a small tan head that fades quickly to a thin cap.

S: Hoppy nose reminds me of an IPA; some tropical pineapple and pine. Some sweet toffee and a touch of nuttiness.

T: Less fruity than the aroma with the pine flavor and a little bit of grass coming to the forefront. Roasted bready malt, toffee, caramel. The nutty flavor I picked up in the aroma is more potent here.

M: Medium bodied with a good amount of carbonation.

O: A decent brown ale. Much more highly hopped than I had anticipated, almost like a brown IPA.

A: Poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Body is slightly hazy chestnut brown with a small ivory head.

S: Caramel malt with a touch of nuttiness.

T: Malt-centric, with sweet caramel malt and toffee underneath, a touch of hazelnut coffee, then followed up with a nice hop bitterness - slightly lemony - that provides nice balance and a drying finish.

M: Light-to-medium in heft, carbonation is a little low, but works with this style and the flavor porfile.

O: A real nice, easy-quaffing brown ale. I'm often looking for exactly this type of beer in my fridge - i.e., lots of malt flavor, balanced and easy drinking - but rarely finding it (my wife's a hophead, which kinda makes me a hophead). Now that I know about this one, I will try and keep a sixer of it on hand. It's especially nice that it's local. A real solid brown.

look: 4.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4

A: Pours a hazy brown body with a medium white head; spotty lacing.

S: First thing I notice is the pine in the aroma; much hoppier than expected. It's balanced by some sweet caramel malts and slightly nutty.

T: Doesn't taste like a typical brown ale. Loads of Centennial hops are the first thing I notice giving it a nice, dry, bitter citrus peel flavor to contrast to the sweet caramel malts. The sweetness is faint but does the job, and malts tend to be more roasty then anything else.

M: Light body; moderate carbonation; crisp and light texture- very refreshing.

O: This is one that is better when it's fresh from the brewery. Sure it isn't bad when it's bottled and out for a few months, but it's sooo much better if you pick it up straight from the brewery. I would have rated differently if I hadn't had it straight from there.
