The appearance was a semi-hazy burnt orange color with a small film of a white foamy head. Sly lace.
The aroma had some soft Belgian yeasty/breadiness up front, good amount of honey, light pomme-like fruits, and a soft herbal quality at the end.
The flavor leaned towards the sweetness of the blend. Fruits seemed a bit more scaled. Aftertaste had more honey sweetness. Finish was all about the honey.
The feel was light bodied, and pretty sessionable. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt just as good.
Overall, honey ale or a Belgian ale with honey in it? Not sure, but it’s worth a shot if you like what I just described.

The appearance was a mildly murky brown color with just a film of a white foamy head. No lace.
The aroma had milk chocolate up front, a little bit of dark chocolate and ended with some mild cereal grains.
The flavor leaned towards the sweet side through the dark and milk chocolates. Aftertaste and finish were the same.
The feel was light bodied and fairly sessionable. Carbonation was good. ABV was fine.
Overall, not a stout, not a porter, not a brown ale, just a straight up chocolate ale. I think I remember having something similar to what Boulevard brewed several years ago when I lived in their distribution.

The appearance was a deep dark brown color with a slim bar pour’s kind of off tan foamy head that slid off into oblivion fairly nice. Minimal lace.
The aroma had some sweet and roasted nuts with an ample amount of caramel and toffee malts.
The flavor was nutty sweet with the caramel and toffee playing with a little bit of butterscotch. Not much of an aftertaste but there’s a nice dry sweet sort of finish.
The feel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Good carbonation about it. ABV screamed \"chug me\" but I sipped my first pint and ended up not having another, though I could have.
Overall, pretty nice \"session\" styled brown ale, I could see myself having another time. The only thing is I didn’t get any \"honey\" in this.

The appearance was a nice looking dark amber color, almost brown. Thin film of a little white foamy head that slid out into oblivion. No lace.
The aroma had just a touch of vanilla playing with some roasted malts. Barely any caramel. Nuts even seemed scaled further back.
The flavor yielded to the vanilla sweetness initially and then brought some light sweet nuts. Vanilla and malts in the aftertaste. Super sweet finish.
The feel was between light and medium bodied with a decent sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt good.
Overall, not exactly a problematic beer, just didn’t seem to blend the vanilla to the roast enough. Everything seemed cleanly done, nothing off.

The appearance was a dark red almost brown color with a slight film of a little white foamy head that softened out gently. Left some spotty lace.
The aroma had some roast, sweet grains, toast and nuts. Some caramel malts.
The flavor leaned into the sweetness at first and then developed a little bit of roast with a little bit of clean butterscotch. Light aftertaste of the roast and then gently flows right on into the finish.
The feel was about medium bodied with a good carbonation about it. ABV felt good. Pretty smooth along my tongue.
Overall, nice English styled brown ale worthy of having again.

Can listed as from stark brewing. Belgian wit with a nice head. Very mild citrus aroma. Fairly flat. Looks like a wit beir of course. Yes, mild taste attributes as well. Mild & easy. Except for the lacking of CO2, this is not bad. Pretty good overall. Thank you to my son in law.

Boks kjøpt på Coop OBS! Aroma røsted malt, plomme. Utseende mørk rødbrun med offwhite kremet skum som varer. Smak detter er en rund fin øl som ikke stikker seg ut, det er noe karamell i kanten og ettersmaken er mild, litt kjedelig.

Poured into a nonic pint glass, the appearance was a light brown color with a quickly dissipating finger’s worth of white foamy head. Sly lace runs into the beer.
The aroma grabs some earthy, rustic sweet nuts, somewhat roasty with a nice coherent robust coffee bean underneath.
The flavor yields to a blend of earthiness to the sweet. Nice lingering blend of cocoa bean to earthiness running into the aftertaste and a sly quick semi-sweet to roasty finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Smooth malts move finely over my tongue. Low to medium carbonation.
Overall, really nice brown ale that I would love to have again.

Can from Bert’s Pours a hazy deep yellow color with a small bubbly white head that dissipates almost instantly. Aromas of light grainy malt a hint of lemony citrus and a touch of spice. Taste follows the aroma quite well and adds a bit of earthiness. Light easy to drink with enough flavor to keep it somewhat interesting. Not bad.
