Bottle. A- Light, toasty, chocolate. A- Dark brown color, dark liquid, minimal head. T- Roasty, slightly malty, subtle chocolate. P- Medium body, thin texture, soft carbonation, smooth finish. O- Not too memorable. Not a bad brown ale, but lacking a lot of qualities. A little on the thin side too. The flavor is good, but not great. It’s almost there.

Bottle. Brown ales suck. Clear brown, medium tan head, nice lacing., aroma is brown. Flavor is brown, but actually not too bad. Brown sugar, rice, toffee, coffee. Medium sweet, lacking all bitterness. Medium body, a bit creamy. Ok, this one doesn’t quite suck. So there.

Sample at Yabo’s Tacos. Pours brown with some amber around the edges and a medium beige head that dissipates quickly. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malt and a bit of chocolate. Light body with flavors of sweet malt, roasted nuts and mild hops. The finish is sweet with a short chocolate malt aftertaste. Average overall.

Bottle. Sweet caramel malt and light molasses aroma. Clear chestnut with a small beige head, some spotty lacing. Nutty, roasty caramel malt flavor with a very slight bitterness in the finish. Light, crisp body, tingly carbonation. Everything about this was a little on the light side, but sometimes I prefer a lighter brown ale. Today was a hot day, and this was exactly what I wanted.

bottle - Sold as Point Burly Brown. Pours dark brown with a light tan head. It smells of toasted caramel malt. The flavor is a typical, sweet brown ale. There’s some decent body there. Okay brew.

Burly probably means in reference to macro loager lover in thei case. Purchased again under a different name, how rude. Anyhow it wwas origanally a 3.3 but I lowered it. ....../////......Twist off cap on a 12 oz brown bottle. Pour is a good representation of a dark beer, half inch tan head. Smell is just plain beery good. Nice mild roasty flavors that are not overwelming, almost comes across like a very mild well carbonated stout or porter. Some wet old burnt wood flavors are hiding back in there. Pleasant and easy to drink, goes down easy without any rude ale-ness that I detect in stronger beers any more. Hides the 5% well. A good overall mild beer experience. Right up there with the better brown ales such as Hub City Brown Ale or cotton wood but not quite as good as East End Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark brown color with a small beige head. The aroma was tangy, malty and a touch roasty with light notes of floral hops and coffee. The flavor was dry, roasty and bitter with a light floral hop presence. Medium length finish. A bit thin in body. Mediocre.

Pour is brown with a small tan head. Aroma is sweet malts and not much else. Flavor is slighly rosted malt with a touch of chocolate at the end. Nothing really great. It’s a brown ale.
