Drinking this at The Tattered Tartan in beautiful downtown Andrews NC.
Poured from a can into a pint glass, looks dark brown with a tannish foamy head that dropped quickly to a thin cap
Smells malty, sweet, chocolate, toffee and mostly caramel.
Taste follows the nose nicely.
Mouth feel is medium for the style.
Overall a very nice example of a brown ale, sweeter than the typical style but very good.
I would definitely order again.
Cheers!

Look: It pours brown with a tan head. Head retention is very good.

Smell: There are medium malty notes of caramel, toffee, and chocolate. There are some low citrusy notes with a hint of plum.

Taste: The caramel is strongest in the malts followed by the chocolate and last the toffee. The citrus is stronger in the aroma than in the flavor which is very low. Plum notes are also very low.

Feel: It has a medium body with medium bitterness in the finish.

Overall, there are some of the flavors that clash a bit, but it is refreshing.

12 oz can at the 2019 Suwannee Roots Revival in Live Oak, FL.
Pours with a clear dark reddish-brown body and a semi-durable off-white head.
Mild bitterness with bold flavor for the style. It's probably a bit more hoppy than the average American Brown Ale, and a bit less sweet.

Six pack local 828wnc -poured into Innovation Brewing pint tumbler -
Deep clear brown, light tan head, which faded out fast. A beauty of a brown.
Tasty nutty malt aromas are there, but not that bold - could me my old schnozzola.
Confident toasty bold nutty flavors dominate without being too sweet and it finishes up clean. Appropriate hop balance. Has a woody/spice note that reminds me of other high quality brown ales. Truly an easy drinking brown!
Very light for the flavor depth, and very inviting...I want more!
Overall I am really pleased with Sweeten Creek Burn Dawger Brown Ale, and will probably stop over there for lunch soon.
Recommended if one likes a quality made, fairly light, dry FLAVORFUL brown ale!
