Poured with a small off white head that quickly faded no lace and a hazy amber color. Aroma is old beer with a hint of chocolate. Flavor is similar to nose, more sweet than bitter, slight amount of carbonation. Found this squirreled away chilled, in an old cooler since God knows when.

Canned (thanks heemer77!). Dark amber colour, beige head. Aroma is malty caramel and some hops. Flavour is roasted malts, some hops along with bittering fruits. Not the most exciting brew, but indeed a nice and refreshing thing.

Can
Dark brown color, not much head. A bit smoke and tar in the nose. Cold coffee and toasted malts in the flavor. Crisp carbonation. Refreshing, more porter than brown ale -like, light ale. Flavors fade away quickly.

Canned. Cloudy brown, rich creamy head. Dominated by light roasty malt. Light-medium bodied with rounded mouthfeel and some light earthy malt as well as red berries. Finishes with low bitterness. An easy going beer, being pleasant without sticking out.
