Can from my advent calendar. Obvious brown pour, with a large beige head. Aroma is nutty, roasty coffee, roasty malts, light brown sugar and pine resin. Medium bitterness, resinous finish.

12 oz can from Buckeyboy. Thanks. Pours a roan brown color with a small off-white head. The aroma is dust, nuts and cocoa. The taste is toffee, walnuts and something earthy. The palate is light but effective. carbonation is soft and fizzy. Finishes with an earthy-astringent quality. Overall: decent brown ale.

Deep dark brown coloured body with a relatively thick two to three centimetre tall tan head that stays afloat nicely. Aroma of almonds, walnuts, a dash of yeast and bread with some soft lactose and caramelised sugars towards the finish, but the malt dominates here. Medium-bodied; Slight creamy and milky quality noticeable at first with some nuts and earthiness right behind and malt with a good hit of caramelised sugars and rustic qualities with the sweetness creeping through at the end and showing stronger than the malts. Aftertaste shows some nuttiness and rustic qualities with a lactic and creamy bite and a good dose of sugars throughout, all with the nuts and malt stronger than anything else. Overall, a nice nutty and earthy beer with a slight creamy and lactose flavour with smooth sugars, but a nice rounded bite throughout. Good to sample and well worth the space in my suitcase! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Marceller's Vintage Wines & Brews in Idaho Falls, Idaho on 04-August-2020 for US$2,10 sampled at my house back on the other coast in Washington on 19-January-2021.

There are some clear brewing flaws in this can. It is thin and papery acidic. Fermented with homebrew cheap dry yeast it seems. Sk adventkal

355ml can. Pours a slightly hazy brown with ruby hue and a large, creamy, long lasting, tan head that laces. Semi-sweet aroma of toasted caramel malt, cocoa, earth and nuts. Sweet flavour of toasted caramel malt, chocolate, brown sugar, day old coffee and nuts in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Easy drinking. Pretty standard Brown Ale.
