On draught at the Country Inn in Krumville NY. Clear ruby tinged dark brown body witha fleeting off-white head. Malty toasty aroma. Sweet not overly complex. A bit thin but not bad at all for the style.

Nice slightly hazy deep brown coloured body with a lighter brown head. Aroma of nuts and hops - pretty nice, actually! Medium-bodied; Nice hop flavour supercedes the nuts and the malt. Aftertaste shows hops too. Overall, more of an APA style dark ale, but great to try regardless! I’d prefer if all browns were like this instead of the normal nutty ones! I sampled this on draught at the Albany Pump Station in Albany, New York on 25 June 2006.

Slightly hazy brown coloured body with a light tan head. Aroma of malt, toffee, alcohol, nuts and figs. Medium to Full-bodied; Nice alcoholic taste with good musty fruit tastes and a pungent flavour that lasts. Overall, a good barleywine - very nice to try. I sampled this on draught at the Albany Pump Station in Albany, New York on 25 June 2006.

Nice deep brown coloured body with a light brown head. Aroma of malt, vinegar and coffee. Medium-bodied; Nuts up front with roasted malt lingering further back in the taste, with a bitter finish. The aftertaste shows more coffee behind. Overall, this beer is all right, but a bit too bitter for me. I sampled this on draught at the Albany Pump Station in Albany, New York on 25 June 2006.

Clear gold coloured body with a light head that tops the beer nicely. Aroma of malt, lemons and alcohol. Full-bodied; Strong sweetness, the honey and sugars dominate this one completely. Aftertaste is very strong and alcoholic, but shows quality throughout. I sampled this on draught at the Albany Pump Station in Albany, New York on 25 June 2006.

Slightly hazy coloured body topped nicely by a white head. Aroma of malt and wheat. Nice citrus flavour throughout with some wheat too. Aftertaste is very clean and fresh...Good Blonde! I sampled this on draught at the Albany Pump Station in Albany, New York on 25 June 2006.

On draught 4/09/2005 at the brewpub. This one actually gets a small head, with probably the best retention of the lot (not saying anything). Light grey-beige head atop a fairly dark, mahogany brown. Light transluscent haze. Smells of caramel and light chocolate and prunes. Flavor of light prunes, some fruit that is on the verge of spoiling, black pepper?, caramel and a bit of bland cardboard on the finish. A very, very light roast and light chocolate are discernible. Sugary, lightly coarse palate, with some gritty/grainy malt, and at the same time, a bit of water on the finish. Low hops apparency, though a little bit of complexity from the amarillo hops.
