Bottle at GBBF 2011, Day 1, shared with Ken and Paul. Pours a clearish, golden-red with a mild, foamy head. Dusty malt nose, slight tang evident. Mild earth in the flavor, some toast, bit of toffee, pleasant sweetness. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Toast and faint smoke to finish, light caramel. Nice. Chestnuts don’t get no respect.

Bottle at GBBF 2011. It pours orange-amber, with a thin foamy beige head. The nose is orange, smoke, bonfire, farmyard and light sourness. The taste is tart orange, cream soda, lemon, mango, apricot and wood with a dry finish. Moderate body and soft carbonation. An interesting beer.

Bottled.An amber beer with sediment floating around under a lazing orangey head. The aroma is sweet matly with notes of caramel and light notes of smoke. The flavor is sweet and acidic with notes of caramel, leading to a dry finish with notes of oranges. Huge thanks to yespr for sharing.

Nearly no head; copper-amber ale. Nose of too-deep fried fries, fatty acids, burnt. Acids in the taste, but not really sour. Faint flour taste. Slight astringency, medium bodied. Nowhere pleasing beer, spoiled chestnuts.
