UPDATED: NOV 27, 2021 Cherry like aroma, beautiful red color, but not the best tasting. Won't buy this brown beer from the commisary again. Cool label though...

UPDATED: JUN 2, 2021 12oz bottle from coworker, oddly enough the most attention getting note was a coppery taste.

UPDATED: MAR 26, 2021 Old rating from 2017 - 355ml bottle from Love Wine in Jersey. Pours brown with a white head. Aromas & tastes of tea, toffee, caramel, cinnamon, chocolate, coffee, bread & malt. Medium body. Clean mild bitter finish

UPDATED: APR 30, 2020 Mild coffee flavor with some chocolate lingering in the background. Low carbonation. Mellow flavors. Decent aftertaste.

UPDATED: APR 13, 2020 Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Amber colour. Moderate malty and hoppy aroma. Moderate bitter flavor. Average moderate bitter finish. Oily palate.

UPDATED: OCT 28, 2019 A reliable and well-distributed beer in Norleans. Hoppier than most browns, and that;s important to me. Malt that's rich but not sweet, toasted grains, a tad of chocolate. Aroma more on the sweet side, with toffee and a little sawdust.

Bottle share at Craft Beer Rising 2017, Brick Lane. Deep ruby and hazy with an offwhite head. Malty aroma with nutty and grassy notes. Flavour is a little on the sweet side with biscuity, cakey notes.

UPDATED: SEP 15, 2019 Draught @ Fox & Hounds, Sønderborg, Øllets Day 2019. Pours cloudy coffee brown with airy light tan head. Mild aroma of malt and yeast, with coffeelike touches. Bitter, roasty flavour with notes of hops and nuts and sweetish touches of yeast and malt. Roasty and nutty aftertaste with estery hints. Tame. Drinkable and reasonable but much less than what used to. e the standard for the brewery. Go back to your no le roots, Abita.

UPDATED: SEP 8, 2019 This bottle is coming from the biervana, at Munich, enjoying and tasting this bottle, at home, at Epalinges, two days ago. The body is dark and brown, a bit troubled, normal carbonation, thin white and brown foam. In my point of view, it is a reasonable brown ale, not bad at all, with a touch of malt, nuts, bready, dry with a classical touch of hop, at the final.
