This was poured into a snifter. The appearance was a rustic burnt orange to brown color with a deep haze around the body and a finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated at a nice pace. Slim lacing running all around the glass. The aroma had some brown sugar, nutty malts and toffee blending decently with some light expected booziness to it. The flavor leans to the sweet side with the previously mentioned aromas blending nicely. Sweet boozy nuts in the aftertaste and finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sipping quality to it. Carbonation feels good for the style and shapes a fair stickiness about it. Overall, good as an American strong ale, but not as a brown ale. Still, I would come back to.

A: Poured out an opaque cola color. One finger of light brown head.

S: Bready yeast and subtle hints of dark malt and nuttiness.

T: Dark malt and some nutty flavors. Flavors are very subdued.

M: I definitely got a bottle that was flat. It was somewhat evident in the appearance too. Otherwise, it had a medium body.

O: Didn't enjoy drinking this much. There wasn't much to savor as it lacked almost all flavor for what should've been a "big brew". The only plus side is that it was very drinkable for 9.5% ABV.

Pours a two finger dark cream head that fades slowly leaving a good lace, some yeast left in bottle. Hazy mahogany color. Medium carbonation and medium bodied. Light roasted coffee nose and flavor is roasted coffee. Higher ABV totally hidden, is this really 9.5% ?? $6.99 for a 22oz bottle from Market Basket Concord, NH.
