Tasted on 5/14/2015 by triwaves

Notes:

Very nice, one of my best batches! I'm a little fuzzy on the boundary between some of the brown ales and a brown porter ... but this tastes more like a brown ale (Newcastle ish) to me With a hint of sweetness, caramel and a medium brown color. Virtually no hop taste or aroma, nice head and lacing on the glass.

Notes:

Sampled an early bottle, not enough carbonation yet, but the caramel notes come through and it tastss quite a bit like a english brown. Not bad, in terms of potential with another 2 weeks in the bottle...

Notes:

Tasted prior to bottling it, and it seemed pretty good for a flat room temp Porter.
