Ben & Jerry's
Salted Carmel Brownie Brown Ale

Nose: Has pretty typical aromas for a Brown Ale - sweet caramel malts with hints of chocolate and vanilla.

Taste: Based on the style, there isn't really any bitter components. Upfront caramel roasted malts which give way to chocolate nuttiness. None of the flavors are overstated.

Finish: Dryer finish with chocolate notes lingering.

Recommendation: Grab a pint/bottle where you can. While this beer does have some of the advertised flavors, it doesn't break out much past your typical Brown Ale.

Lips Of Faith:
Blackberry Barley Wine Ale

Nose: A very fruity, bready with a scent of blackberries, caramel malt, and other fruit. Upfront scent of blackberries along with some hints of raisin and dates.

Taste: Big upfront jammy taste of blackberries, along with other sweet and tart notes of tart cherry and dark grapes. Some notes of oak and sweet caramel.

Finish: Very syrupy sweet finish that lingers.

Recommendation: Try a Taster at first. A good smooth introduction to Barley Wines in general but be careful they pack a punch at 10% ABV.
