L - Deep brown with a large tan head that sticks around and leaves behind some lacing
S - Chocolate and roasted malts along with some vanilla and caramel notes.
T - Follows the nose, a good amount of milk chocolate and roasted malts along with some vanilla and caramel notes with slight hints of coffee - somewhat sweet overall.
F - Medium bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O - A pretty solid brown ale, but somewhat on the sweeter side of things - could use a little more bitterness to cut the sweet.

Poured a deep clear brown with a thin covering of head. Spots and specks of lacing are left behind. The aroma is light but has a nice caramel malt sweetness and a little nutty hint. The taste is similar but just a little less robust. The body isn't heavy, easy drinking and very smooth.

Fantastic beer.
L: dark brown almost black, with a little less than a finger head, quite a bit of carbonation
S: Strong chocolate coffee domination, hint of oak, toffee and nutmeg, something you normally get in stout beer.
T: Coffee, chocolate, malty flavor, but without bitterness. Low on the after taste too but still very coffee overall.
B: Light to medium
Very stout flavor with low ABV, easy to drink and very enjoyable flavor. Surprisingly good.
