Murky brown body; then yet creamy light tan head. Aroma infused with cocoa and roasted grain scents; vanilla; faint coffee-like note. The flavor is much like the aroma; spicy, minty notes; trace of alcohol. Medium body; sharp and prickly; moderately sweet finish.
Overall, a nice brown ale with character and style. The one major downside is that the beer is bottle conditioned yet extremely over-carbonated. My first bottle gushered with nothing left to pour yet plenty of cleanup on nearly every spot in the kitchen and part of the living room (floor, walls, ceiling). I ensured the second bottle (the one used for this review) was refrigerated and undisturbed for over 24-hours and still it took about 15 minutes of slowly prying off the bottle cap and losing about 1/4 of the bottle from oozing, spitting foam. If you can keep the beer from gushing from the bottle, you're in for a decent quality brown ale.
