Bottle. Roasty malt aromas. Caramel, chocolate, nut flavors are a good mix. Nice and refreshing.

Lots of toasted malty tones and some caramels, hints of chocolate, nuttiness, even a bit of hops. Lots of flavor present in this brown ale, very refreshing taste.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Reddish brown, hazy beer with a beige-coloured, collapsing head. Aroma of roasted malt and caramel. And the precise same characteristics are found in the flavour also containing notes of nuts and toffee. Rather light body and mainly dry with a light hoppy finish. A very accessible BA. 011005

Bottle. Bonbon aroma, hint of oxidation. Clear chestnut colour. Aromatic hop flavour. A bit thin/watery. Watery aftertaste. Long, semi-unpleasant bitterness in aftertaste. Overall, not as bad as it sounds.

Bottle Pours a clear deep redish brown. Very nice thick dense light tan head. Thick sticky lacing. Sweet malty aromas with some fruity notes as weel. Possibly cherry or grape. Flavor is mainly a straight forward woody, malty theme. Plain and pleasant. A slightly bitter trailer and pretty light on the hops as well. Quite soft carbonation and a smooth but not very heavy feel. About what I expected a decent middle of the road, drinkable brown ale.

A clear brown beer with a small light brown head. The aroma is slightly sour. The flavor is dry and sweet but the background is slightly sour.

Clearish orange-red body, thin light cream head. Chocolate, toast, and unusual earthy hops aroma. Weak chocolatey toasty body with earthy hops flavors coating the mouth and a slight tanginess before the finish. Bland and boring for a brown ale. The description states this is "brewed according to tradition." I think they forgot to add "of mediocrity."

2004 draught. Appears a drab brown with some dark yellow-amber tinges in it and a decent white head. Aroma has light toffee, nuts and some mildly spicy hops. Flavor is pretty hoppy and spicy, without much dryness. But that’s quite alright, as the sweet brown malts complement the hops well. Maybe a hint of vinousness, or at least some light fruit esters in there. Mouthfeel was excellent; lightly creamy, not overcarbonated and had a strong medium body.
