Pours a light brown color forming into a nice shade of light ruby coffee. Head is grey-beige with lots of yummy lacing left behind.

Aroma of chocolate chips, brownie tin, and light cashew.

Flavor is blood, oatmeal, cocoa, peanut hull, hints of coffee, herb/grass, and a finish of brownie batter.

Feel is perfect for the style. Nice and light, refreshing, great carbonation with a hint of dryness/roast on the finish.

Overall a really good brown ale. Glad I could pick more up.

Got in a trade with The-Adjunct-Hippie. 12 ounce can into pint glass, no can dating. Pours lightly hazy/cloudy reddish copper/brown color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky light khaki head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of nutty medium roast coffee, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, and toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of chocolate, cocoa, dark fruit, herbal, grass, pepper, and roast/toasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/bready/light roasted malt, coffee, and light earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of big nutty medium roast coffee, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, and toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of chocolate, cocoa, dark fruit, herbal, grass, pepper, and roast/toasted earthiness. Light herbal/grassy/spicy hop and roasted coffee bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of nutty coffee, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, toasted biscuit, chocolate, cocoa, herbal, grass, pepper, and roast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready/light roasted malt, coffee, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from hop/roast bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy, and slightly sticky/chalky mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 6.5%. Overall this is a very nice American brown ale. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready/light roasted malt, coffee, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish. Great nutty/fruity coffee presence, and a great well rounded base brown ale malt profile. Just enough hops to balance. A very enjoyable offering, and great style example.

Groovin on a 12 oz can in a pint glass via a friend from work---Thanks Randy!
This most excellent brown ale pours a clear medium brown with an astounding head of foam that settles to a thick ring, thick rich layer, and righteous lacing. Nose of subtle coffee, sweet caramel malts, and subtle hops. Flavors exceed the nose with coffee and moderate caramel malts on the front and sides, middle features more dark roasted coffee and finishes with a nice herbal hop and lightly bitter roasted malt note. Great mouth feel, light carbonation, and a lightly dry finish. Excellent. The best brown ale I have had in a long time.

Cheers

Pours a clear, brown color. 1/4 inch head of an off-white color. Good retention and great lacing. Smells of roasted malt, sweet malt, slight coffee, hint of yeast, hint of chocolate, hint of hops, and slight pale malt. Fits the style of an American Brown Ale. Mouth feel is sharp and crisp, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of coffee, roasted malt, slight sweet malt, slight hops, hint of yeast, hint of caramel malt, and slight yeast. Overall, good appearance, aroma, body, and blend.
