On the Brewpub 160222. Darkm brown color with a tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, nut, caramel. Flavor is roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, nuts, bread, alcohol, toffee. Nice beer.

On tap at the brewpub. An unclear chestnut colored beer with a creamy dark beige head. Malt driven aroma with roasted malts, prune, raisin, some toffee and dark chocolate. Some leather hints. It's creamy, smooth and full bodied, lightly warming, with a light acidity and bitterness. Roasted malts, bonfire notes, toffee, dark dried fruits, coffee grit hints, alcohol, nuts and some dark chocolate in the flavor. Medium length finish. Sure prefer an American approach to an imperial brown ale, but not bad this one. 220216

On tap @ the brewpub. Clear, deep brown body under a big, dense, tan head that slowly fades leaving nice curtains. Nice, not very strong aroma of mild dark malt and distinct dark chocolate. Taste is medium sweet, gentle roasted, smooth dark malt, dark chocolate, hint of toffee and balanced bitterness. Fine balanced body as well with a rather long lasting aftertaste. A really nice, relatively straight forward smooth imp. Brown ale without any sharp edges and well hidden alcohol. Dangerously easy drinkable.
