This brown ale pours a clear but very very dark brown. Rises to a moderate head which slowly dissipates down, doesn't totally go away. Very faint toasty aroma. Texture is light and dry. Moderately strong flavor, dominated by a toasty chocolate. Not getting the caramel but some of the toffee. Finish arrives impatiently fast, a dry chocolate with just enough hoppy bitterness. I bought a single, will be going back for a six pack.
