On tap at City Taphouse. Pours a watery brown with a ring of white head. Nose is standard for the style, some wet malts, caramel, toffee, a little detritus. Flavor is just flabby with malt, a little cocoa powder, some caramel, dirt. Watery finish. Uninspired.

Pour is a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is a nice rich roasted nutty creamy malt. Flavor in a big chewy and chccolate malt with a very minor bitterness toward the end of the swallow. A decadently rich and flavorful malt puts this one over the top. If more brown ales were made like this I would drink more brown ales.

Very nicely done brown ale. Roasty, with some light caramel and musk. Pours brown with great head and lacing. Bittersweet finish. Very easy drinking. Tap at churchkey.

On tap at Bailey’s. Pours a dark brown with a hint of an amber hue and a grayish brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a touch of bitterness with dark grains and a hint of roast underlying. Flavor has more sweetness from a cookie note with a dark grain backbone.
