Pour is a nice brown with a small tan head. Aroma is of a small but decent amount of roasted malts. Flavor is light but some chocolate malts are there but again very light, no real hops are present. Easy to drink but not much here.

Interesting. The smell is typical barely wine. Pour yields a frothy off white head ontop of a hazy light amber body. The head has good lacing. Flavor is so-so for a barely wine. Everything about this is average at best. I guess that is denoted by its 50.7 style percentage.

Thanks to lb4lb for this one - clear reddish copper beer, with almost no head - sweet and estery aroma, with a bright fruitiness and apparent, boozy-sweet alcohol - lots of fruity esters in the flavor, with some doughy malt far in the back - light cherry and vanilla in the finish - all the flavors are fairly undefined and weak - it’s pretty much just fruity and alcoholic - meh.

Bottle shared by Pailhead. Hazy coppery orange body, medium buff head. Caramely nose with earthy yeast notes and grapefruit/pine hops. Brash, bold, bitter piney, astringent hops body, also grapefruit rind, all slightly faded. Too harsh and hot. A mundane barleywine.

22 oz. bottle shared by tjthresh (via BeerandBlues2). Pour is a slightly hazy orange-red with a 1/2 inch off white head. Aroma of sweetly baking biscuits, bright fruity hoppiness. Taste of some bitter hops initially, then a strong maltiness that has the sweet fruit. Nice citrus bite to the finish. Can feel the heat in the throat, though the taste isn’t really impacted. Thanks Tom and Brad for this one.

Bottle. Pours a very dark brown with a medium light tan head. The aroma is a roasted malt. The taste is a bit watery roasted malt with a sweet caramel finish. Nothing special with this brown ale.

A brown colored beer. roasted malt aroma and there is some nutty flavor as well. Some chocolate, but this is light. A light beer overall, a porter should be thicker. But no flaws and very drinkable due to a smooth palate.
