On tap at the Seven Bridges brewpub. Pours clear mahogany with tan head. The mild aroma has some roast and a note of dark fruity esters. At first the taste is comprised of roasty notes, some mild burnt malts, a dash of dark fruity esters and a thin layer of caramel. It then moves toward additional roasty dryness into the finish. This brew has lots of flavor for a Brown Ale which come together nicely.

Draught, Seven Bridges
Dull light brown. Hints of caramel. A sweet, simplistic example. Didn’t give it much thought.

Brown colour with ruby highlight and a thin white head. A chocolate aroma with strong maltiness as well. Medium-bodied; Strong nuttiness, chocolate and malt tastes. Overall, better than the average brown (I style I typically don't like) and one of the best from the visit! I had this on draught at Big River (owned by Gordon Biercsh) in Chattanooga, Tennesse on 26-September-2003.

Part of a sampler: Pours a dark brown color with a medium off-white head. Light lacing. Aroma is light malt with a nutty aspect. Medium-bodied with malt, brown sugar and hops flavors. Finish is equal parts malt and chocolate. Pretty good.
