This brown ale poured a deep brown colour with a huge, tan coloured head. This beer was almost impossible to pour from a bottle. Even the slowest pour gave me nothing but head. Scents include brown sugar, baked beans an ripe fruit. First swig was really carbonated. Very fizzy to the tongue. Flavours of maple syrup/baked bean syrup, over-ripened fruit, alcohol and a wee bit of wine. Finish was quite sweet also with that near baked bean flavour lingering.

Roast, cocoa, chocolate, sweetish, nutty, fizzy
