This was poured into a nonic pint glass. The appearance was a hazy brown with red hues roaming around the sides of the glass. One finger white foamy head leads to a stringy sliding lacing. The smell starts off with a big burst of citrus hops eventually balancing into a toasty nutty malt. The taste copies the aroma and leads into a sharp citrus aftertaste and finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation seemed decent for a Brown ale - allowing enough hops to empower the bitterness to be the harshness. Overall, American Brown ale, well it sure is. Definitely one of the more bitter brown ales on the market. It might even make you swear.

On tap at blend. Dark brown color,foamy minimal head. Zero carbonation. Aroma is bread, hops, mud. Taste is malty, touch of vinegar. Not sure what the intent is here....kind of halfway between malty and hoppy. Yuck. All around pretty bad.

Have had before so tried to keep an open mind. Poured dark with very little head. Stays on your tongue pleasantly but outside of that nothing to write home about. Run of the mill Brown but something you could finish a 6 pack off. Decent for the price.

I really like the look and the smell of this hoppy brown ale. I like brown ales but too hoppy for me. I wanted to try something local from Shed and it wasn't bad. Just not a beer I'd drink on a regular basis.
