DUBLIN, February 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/92jw2z/smart_factory) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis on the International Smart Factory Market - Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130307/600769 )
Smart factory concept is an emerging trend in the manufacturing world. It is a new dimension of multi-scale manufacturing by using the state-of-the-art ubiquitous/pervasive computing technologies. The smart factory concept is believed to change the way our factories work. In the factory of the future', everything will be interdependent as the virtual world of IT and physical world of manufacturing will merge together to provide a seamless integration of the process and people. Smart factory products, resources and processes are characterized by cyber-physical systems where materials are moved efficiently across the factory floor. This would provide significant real-time quality, time, resource, and cost advantages in comparison with the traditional production systems. Sensing components such as actuators and sensors within the industrial set-up are expected to become "smart" as they are, increasingly, becoming self-sufficient with integrated computing abilities and low power consumption.
The smart factory will involve consolidation of existing solutions based on a holistic integration of field devices and technologies. There is an increasing trend towards the amalgamation of different manufacturing software such as ERP, MES, PLM and MOM. The future solution would be a more integrated package with no clear distinctions. This integration is being driven by the need for seamless exchange of business intelligence to enhance the efficiency by the optimization of resource planning. Industrial network, RFID systems, industrial robotics and control devices are being increasingly integrated with technology to achieve synchronized flow of information and a better control in industrial setup. This trend is expected to drive the market growth for both, the technology and field device.
The key companies in the emerging smart factory market include ABB Limited (Switzerland), Rockwell Automation Inc. (U.S.),and General Electric (U.S.), Siemens AG (Germany), Schneider Electric SA (France), Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (Japan), and Invensys Plc (U.K.), SAP AG (Germany), PTC (U.S.), Dassault Systemes S.A ( France), Cadence Design Systems, Inc.

Heres a little recipe I worked out, and Sweet Potatoes are full of vitamin A! These sweet potato or yam muffins have less than 100 calories each and less than a half a gram of fat each! They come out to just under 1 gram of sugar each, but i use no sugar in them so these are naturally occuring. By the way no these are not "mini-muffins"! Feel free to use regular muffins tins like I did... They are a great harmless snack or breakfast addition. To get your vitamin A be sure to pair it with a healthy dietary fat (we need fat to absorb the A) - breakfast with 1 ounce of reduced fat cheese and a piece of fruit is great! So low cal you can mix and match often- and made with whole wheat flour- so you are getting your healthy whole grains and their awesome antioxidants! Enjoy!

Pens/Flyers, Braden Holtby, betting tips, and a few breakout candidates.
1. Is Braden Holtby this season's Cam Ward? The circumstances are different (Holtby is taking over for two injured goaltenders in Tomas Vokoun and Michal Neuvirth, while Ward unseated a healthy Martin Gerber in Carolina), but there are some eerie similarities. Cam Ward was 22-years-old in 2006 when he led the Hurricanes to the final. He played the majority of that season in the AHL, compiling a 27-17-3 record with a 1.99 GAA and a .937 save percentage in Lowell.
Holtby is 22-years-old right now, and he spend the majority of the season In the AHL, although his numbers aren't as good as Ward's were (20-15-2 with a 2.61 GAA and a .906 save percentage). Both goalies were stars in the WHL – Ward with Red Deer and Holtby with Saskatoon. Both are similarly sized, although Holtby is a bit stockier. Will be interesting to see if he can turn in a similar performance – the Caps will need it to get past a superior Boston squad.
2. The LA Kings didn't hard match a forwards line against the Sedin twins at all this season. According to the line matching tool in DobberHockey's fantastic Frozen Pools section, the Kings had their top line out against Daniel and Henrik most frequently. A pairing of Drew Doughty and Rob Scuderi played against the Sedins almost 30% of the time – look for that to be the match up the Kings try to get. Doughty plays the Sedins really physically. That would leave Willie Mitchell and Slava Voynov against the Ryan Kesler unit. Mitchell and Kesler often butted heads in practice when both were Canucks – two fiery personalities. Could be a matchup to watch.
3. The Kings really targeted Logan Couture from a physical standpoint during the final two games of the season, and you can bet Daniel Sedin will receive the same treatment. Los Angeles struggles to score, but they are a big and physical team from top to bottom, especially with midseason call ups Jordan Nolan and Dwight King.
3. In the four most recent Flyers/Penguins games, Evgeni Malkin played against a line centered by Sean Couturier nearly 40% of the time. That is a matchup the Flyers are likely to keep – the amount of responsibility the Flyers have given to the rookie is incredibly impressive. When was the last time a Cup contending team leaned on a 19-year-old as their primary shutdown center? Patrice Bergeron in Boston?
4. There are many reoccurring story lines that pop up every spring, but one of my favorites is the spotlight that is placed on the checking lines. Chris Higgins has clicked with Sammy Pahlsson and Jannik Hansen, and I'd expect the trio to be out against Anze Kopitar as much possible. Max Talbot will see a lot of former teammate Evgeni Malkin, as well.
5. If you are inclined to bet on some hockey games this spring, I'd recommend a little trick I have used to success over the years – take the under in as many first round games as possible (only if the total combined score is 5.5 or over). The bookies smarten up and tend to drop the lines down to 5.0 by the end of the first round for many games, but there is a bit of a lag.
Another successful strategy – always bet the over in any game Marty Turco is playing.
6. The San Jose/St. Louis series will provide a great example of the difference between top end talent (San Jose) and depth (St. Louis). The Blues can roll out four lines that can score, hit and defend. The Sharks can only say that about two of theirs. On defense, the Sharks will lean on their top three defensemen a lot. St. Louis is comfortable with their top five or six (depending on the health of Carlo Colaiacovo).
7. In 81 career playoff games (CHL and NHL, combined), Claude Giroux has 116 career points. What is he going to do this year for an encore? I'm looking forward to watching him go head to head against Sidney Crosby – there is no player in the NHL more similar to Crosby in terms of skill set and demeanor than Giroux.
8. If Chicago fans aren't familiar with Martin Hanzal, they will be in a week from now. Expect the mammoth Coyotes center to be a blanket on Jonathan Toews all series long. Hanzal has received the Jordan Staal treatment a bit in Phoenix (offensive abilities have been suppressed a bit due to elite defensive ability), but that doesn't take away from his importance to their success.
9. Most DobberHockey readers are familiar with the rapid rise to elite status by Alex Pietrangelo. A lot of casual fans are not, as the Blues haven't received a ton of national media attention. He's a likely candidate to be the breakout star of the postseason, just as Giroux was two years ago (and Brad Marchand last year).
10. Chris Kreider is likely going to make his debut for the Rangers during their first round series against Ottawa. I doubt he will see much ice time to start off (provided there are no significant injuries), but that could change if he has a strong game or two. He has NHL speed and size (to say the least – Kreider is a physical specimen at 6'3" and close to 220 pounds), and has the defensive acumen to play in the bottom six right now.
11. The Nashville Predators had eight players with 15+ goals this season. Alex Radulov would undoubtedly have reached that total, too. They are both deeper and more talented than the team that took the Canucks to six games in the second round last spring. Detroit will likely have to balance their defensive pairings out as the Predators like to spread their offensive stars among two or three lines. A lot of pressure on the rookie Jakub Kindl and the inconsistent Jonathan Ericsson.
12. Early pick for deadline acquisition of the year – Nicklas Grossmann on Philadelphia. The Flyers figured Grossmann would be insurance in the event of injuries – he has been one of their best and most consistent defenders over the past month or so. He missed the final three regular season games with a knee injury, but will be good to go for game one against Pittsburgh. His presence has been a huge contributor to the strong play from Ilya Bryzgalov recently.
13. Even with Nathan Horton out, Boston is still my pick to come out of the East. Pittsburgh has a tough road in the first round, and I wonder about the fatigue factor with Marc-Andre Fleury.
14. Who is the first player to get Kronwall'd? Radulov? Martin Erat? There should be a pool for this. Kronwall seems to throw a big hit every 10 games during the regular season – in the playoffs, it seems to be one every period.
15. When making your picks for the DobberHockey Playoff Challenge, my advice is to go big or go home. Bet big on two or three teams. Don't bother hedging your picks, as the third liners on Cup finalists often outpoint the top liners on teams eliminated early. Teams I am betting on this year – St. Louis, Vancouver, and Boston. A fewsleepers on those teams to consider – Vladimir Sobotka, Chris Higgins, and Brian Rolston.
One more sleep…
Heaton said:
2) The chances that Kindl sees icetime in the playoffs is basically 0%. Smith will be in if anyone falters and with the way Ericsson has been playing it looks like Quincey would be the first one out.
Pengwin7 said:
These were all fantastic, amazing points.
Honestly - I loved them all. Definitely one of your best pieces this year!
10/10, A+, solid... very solid.
Great job!

Recipe by MEVERTSE
"Wonderfully yummy muffins! I love these at anytime. The flavors remind me of Christmas morning! Fat free sour cream can be used to lower the fat content. Cinnamon or other spices (cloves, ginger or allspice) can be added for a little more spice."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

orange with peel, chopped
1/2 cup
orange juice
1/2 cup
chopped dates
egg, beaten
1/3 cup
white sugar
1 1/2 cups
all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon
baking powder
1 teaspoon
baking soda
1/2 teaspoon
1/2 cup
sour cream
Here are some changes that make these muffins even better.... OMIT: sour cream ADD: 1 stick butter (room temperature), 1/2 cup chopped pecans INCREASE: white sugar to 3/4 cup. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut orange in pieces and remove pits. In food processor, put in whole orange, o.j., egg, and butter. Blend for 3 to 4 minutes. Sift dry ingredients into a bowl. Mix in chopped dates. Add wet ingredients to dry and mix until just blended. Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes. You'll love this even better!
Although I added cinnamon, the muffins were a little bland. Next time will add more sugar & spice.

I mixed the orange juice, chopped orange, chopped dates, egg and sugar in my blender. I increased the sugar just a bit, from 1/3 cup to 1/2 cup, and used fat free yogurt for the sour cream.
The flavour is lovely, and I made no other changes.
These were so nice and moist** didn't have sour cream -but- Yogurt worked just fine, added some spices. GREAT.
Yummy and moist like little puddings. I added some ground cloves and cinnamon, and only used 1/3 the skin from the orange. I don't think I would use any more peel than that as the variety of orange I used had quite a thick peel.
am a bit ambivelent here as far as rating. Would rate 3.5 stars. I read all reviews first and used just 1/2 the orange peel reserving the other half in case I wanted to add more but didn't need to. These did have a very nice orange flavor. Put the eggs, juice, sugar, dates, and orange in my food processor. I thought at first I had added too much powder or soda because it had that 'fizzy' look and texture but realized it was just reacting with the acid in the juice. Subbed some of the oj with fresh pineapple juice and they still had very nice orange flavor. The problem I have with this is #1. not really sweet enough so would be more like a breakfast muffin. I intend on glazing them w/some 10x sugar mixed with oj and zest to help with this. #2. I was alarmed when I saw one reviewer mention the word 'pudding' like texture. I found I had to bake them a bit longer to get rid of that spongy pudding like texture and it didn't completely. Added 1 tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. each of allspice and nutmeg and 1/4 tsp. cardamom. These blend of spices were complimentary. Very good flavor but just lacking in sweetness and the texture.
Sorry, didn't like these at all. Made exactly as recipe stated and found them bland except for the overwhelming taste of orange skin (and I only put in half the skin). Thanks anyway, Maria.
Mmmm, these were fantastic. I was a tad hesitant to put the entire orange, skin and all into the muffin, but they turned out just right! Instead of sour cream I used peach yogurt because it was all I had and the recipe still worked well. One of the best muffins I ever tasted.

910 Atlantic Ave, Virginia Beach, VA | Directions 2345136.838510 -75.972669
Neighborhoods: Northeast, Northeast Virginia Beach
Wonderful! – Great food, though pricey. Creme Brulee to die for. Cheesecakes, too. Excellent service. No real kids menu, but my kid loved the "cheese pizza"---foccacio crust with sauce and cheese, cooked on a woodstove.
check it out!
Incredibly pricey for poorly cooked food – I have tried it twice and neither time was impressed. Once with lamb as the main course (poorly cooked and chewy) calamari as the appetizer was chewy and oily. Earlier visit was main course chicken piccata (undercooked and dry on the outside, no capers). The ambience is terrible, really crowded (lets see how many we can pack in to sell our overpriced food to) tables packed on top of each other.
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! – Excellent experience, a bit expensive, but you get what you pay for.
Food was extraordinary and the service was superb.
Highly recommended!
Fresh Italian Pasta Dishes a la minute – Extraordinary service. Linguini with White Clam Sauce is perfect. Authentic Itlaian cuisine. Desserts prepared on property are superb. Antipasto: Proscuitto Ham, Reggiana Parmegiana, Roasted Red Peppers, Kalamata Olives.........too fabulous. Wine selections numerous and well chosen.
Simply the best of the best! – The best I have ever had! Simply incredible, the best atmosphere, mixed with the best food the beach has to offer. Music is great, and the people are excellent. The best!

PITTSBURGH—A western Pennsylvania woman accused of having left her 3-year-old twins alone before they died in a fire has waived a preliminary hearing on involuntary manslaughter and related charges.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says ( http://bit.ly/X9b49b) says 32-year-old Dalawna Berran-Lett of North Braddock waived the hearing Wednesday in Allegheny County.
Authorities said she told detectives that she had gone to look for a teenager to try to retrieve stolen marijuana before the Jan. 4 fire that killed Ky'heir (KY'-heer) and Dy'heir (DY'-heer) Arthur.
Police said the boys turned on a burner on a grease-covered stove, sparking flames that soon engulfed the house. Investigators said they had nearly started a fire trying to cook ribs in December when they were left alone for about 20 minutes.

Dear Amy: I live overseas but recently spent almost two weeks in my brother's home with him and his family. He has become an alcoholic.
After work and before dinner he drinks alone, just to get drunk. It's like a ritual. Then he becomes verbally abusive.
He has had two DUIs. His wife is strangely complacent. When I confronted her (on several occasions) she maintained that he drinks in moderation. He does not drink in moderation.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
One night I measured that he drank over 20 shots of scotch. What should I do? Talking to him is useless.
I love my brother and do not want to leave him in the hands of his wife, who ignores the problem. My other brother (who lives close by) is aware of this problem but also does nothing.
Should I tell his college-age sons from his first marriage, whom he adores?
Should I tell my parents (who are now in their 80s)?
I think the more people in the family who can talk to him about his problem, the more likely he is to quit on his own or get help. The family could be a good support group for him. I worry that if we keep our heads in the sand I will lose him forever.
— My Brother's Keeper
Dear Brother: Alcohol addiction is fed by denial, but despite your frustration you should not hold your family responsible.
The person you should communicate with about your brother's drinking is your brother. Tell him how much you care about him and urge him to get help.
He will not like it. He will either lash out or ignore you.
After that, you can tell other family members, "I want you to know that I have expressed my concern to Bart about his drinking and I wish you would do the same."
Unfortunately, you cannot save him. You also cannot force him to save himself.
You can only express your concern, love and support. After that, the person responsible for your brother's life will have to step up — and that is your brother.
Dear Amy: I have been married to my husband for 10 years. When we take a drive anywhere I sometimes want to stop along the way.
If I do, my husband makes faces, gives me excuses of why he absolutely does not want to stop and has a mini-tantrum.
I find this behavior thoughtless and it makes me enormously sad. His excuse is that his mother used to take him shopping when he was a child.
Any suggestions on how to stop this sophomoric pattern?
— Sad in Sausalito

Berklee in Los Angeles: It's All in the Song
It's All in the Song: Writing, Production, and the Business of Music Presented by Berklee College of Music, sponsored by Santa Monica High School

The Berklee in Los Angeles program will guide the aspiring musician in a variety of aspects in songwriting, stage performance, production, and the business of music.
Through both individual and team efforts, students will work through the processes and techniques involved in writing, producing, and marketing a song from conception to completion. Lectures and ensemble sessions will range from song form and lyric analysis to using various tools to facilitate the creative process, including introductions to music software and the fundamental procedures of a recording studio. Berklee's Music Business/Management Department will tie it all up by introducing you to the business tools necessary to compete in today's ever-changing music industry. The program will take place on the campus of Santa Monica High School in Santa Monica, California. This program has a limited enrollment; we encourage you to apply early in order to secure a space.Location: Santa Monica High School 601 Pico Boulevard Santa Monica, CA 90405
Who are the instructors?
The program will be taught by Berklee faculty members and special guest artists. Class topics and schedule are subject to change.
What's the schedule?
Clinics generally will run from 10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m., and there will be evening activities which may include concerts and open mic sessions.
- Songwriting Production:
Learn from our master teachers the craft and the art of creating and producing a song. Study song forms. Explore the various musical elements of melody, harmony, and rhythm. Learn how to make your lyrics work with the melody of your song.
- Recording Techniques:
Students will discuss a variety of topics that will familiarize them with the basic techniques of recording and production as they apply to the needs of the songwriter.
- Performance Techniques:
Vocalists and instrumentalists will develop their live performance skills, rehearsal techniques, and stage presence. Students will have the opportunity to perform for the class and receive feedback from faculty and peers.
- Music Business:
Berklee's Music Business/Management Department will present classes that focus on music business for bands and artists, including strategies for getting a record deal, the business and legal issues pertaining to record companies, music licensing and copyright, contracts, music promotion, and artist management.

Lecture topics in the past have included music sequencing and notation software, lead sheet writing, audition techniques, recording lectures, and improvisation. Students will receive information in their acceptance materials about signing up.

The concert event will end with each student receiving a certificate for completing the program. Berklee will also announce some scholarship awards for those students demonstrating exceptional talent in the program and through their live audition and interview.
Instruments and Equipment
During the course of the program, students will have the opportunity to perform their own songs. There will be rhythm section players available to assist you in the performance of your song in class and in concert. We advise that all instrumentalists except keyboardists and drummers bring their own instruments. Drummers should bring sticks and brushes. Guitar and bass amps, drums, and keyboards will be provided for performances and the performance class. Vocalists should bring a low-impedance microphone and a cord.
Optional equipment may also include a laptop computer with music notation, sequencing and recording/production software (e.g. Finale, Sibelius, GarageBand, Logic, Pro Tools, etc).
Remember to bring your songs. We advise that you put them into lead sheet format: melody, chord changes, and lyrics.

Students are responsible for researching and booking their own lodging. There are also a number of other lodging options within walking distance to the event location. Students are encouraged to research these options online. Lunch will be included as part of the program. Students are responsible for their own breakfast and dinner.

8140 Highway 7, St Louis Park, MN | Directions 5542644.936113 -93.382727
Mon - Sat, 9am - 9pm; Sun, 10am - 8:30pm
Now bad food to go with bad service – We went in for lunch and the food was by far and away the worst food I have ever been served in any resturant in my life. Orderd the taco plate the waiter had no idea what I was talking about got a hard shell taco (kind you buy in the store) that had some wilted lettuce and the chicken that comes in a can naaasty!!! My wife's order they forgot to put the beef on it...The best part was when checking out a customer forgot something at there table and while the waiter was bringing it out to them the owner that was taking my money started calling them cabrones and a couple of other choice mexican adjectives...gives you a pretty good idea of what they think of the american customers. I have a home in Mexico and can say without a doubt I have had better food at Taco smell.
Good food horrible service. – While El Gordo's food is very good.... their service is almost unbelievably bad.
The waiters that work there..plain and simply just don't get it.
They are incredibly rude.
To give you an example..the last time that i was there, i asked for some more chips and salsa...the waiter actually started to argue with me.
I told him that i would pay extra...needless to say he charged me and extra $2 for them.
While this was going on, there was a couple sitting on the other side of the restaurant.
The gentleman had to step outside for a minute..while he was away..a different waiter proceeded to hit on his girlfriend while he was gone.
I actually bring people there periodically, because the food is good...but mostly to witness the insanity of the waiters that work there.
Just to let everybody know...I am always very polite with my servers..and I always tip them a minimum of 20%....everywhere that i dine.
Still pretty good food, rude service – I have been dining at El Gordo for more than 10 years and have always enjoyed the food, fast, but good and always adequate service. I say that because they were aways friendly but didn't speak great English. After the restaurant switched to new owners and remodeled, I notice that service was not nearly as friendly, bordering on rude. I think the new owner and staff do not speak very good English at all. There are many, many places to eat in the area and I am, after all these years, going to avoid El Gordo or learn to speak better Spanish. :-)
Emy101 – Very good food and good service too much food. Kids food ok need tostadas as a regular menu item. Would recommend to anyone.
Great Restaurant!!!! – My girlfriend and I always go to this place for dinner. Everything we have ordered has been delicious. We typically can't finish, due to the large portions and frequent chips and salsa dip refills (I highly recommend the cheese dip too), and get to have leftovers for lunch the next day. The waiter/owner is awesome.
In reference to a previous review; when my girlfriend pays he teases me about her buying in a joking manner with a huge smile on his face and no disrespect intended. Why would he care who pays the bill! We will continue to visit El Gordo frequently, and recommend it to anyone we can!
Que Horrible! – Went here on a Saturday for a light lunch. I Ordered a beef tamale. I should have been covered with ground beef and other goodies according to the menu. WHat I got was a chicken tamale with red sauce. When I brought it up with the server/owner he said that sometimes they dont have the beef so they serve the chicken. After I told he he should tell me that when I order he was offended and started an uncomfortable argument in his store. I asked him to leave the table.
He came back and said that "he understood my complaint" and there would be no charge". Duh. I never saw him again.
The food is less authentic then a Taco Johns as well.
Never EVER eat here. The staff is the rudest that I have ever experienced and the food is not at all impressive.
Worse Service Ever. Worse Attitude Ever. – Food.......okay. Service..........bad bad bad. One of the worse experience ever. The server is an ignorant hispanic. I am Asian, went to this restaurant with my fiance who is Caucasian. We had a big breakfast earlier the day and was shopping at the Knollwood Mall. Wanted just a light lunch. We walked in and he brought out a basket of chips and salsa. We ordered two softdrinks and subsequently ordered one taco and a burrito. The server walked away with a comment "you just wasted my time." We blew off the comment and finished our food. He got us the check, I gave my fiance a $10 bill. A minute later, she handed the $10 bill and the bill to him. He commented, "I guess the ladies pay in the United States." I confronted him about the comments. He mumbled in Spanish and he did not denied the comment he made, but he didn't gave me an answer neither. He went on and gave me the change and said, "take your change and never come back again". My fiance and I did not do a thing to him to deserve this kind of treatment!! We felt totally discriminated against because we are the only interracial couple within the restaurant.
If you go to this restaurant, guys, be prepared to pay or expect a nasty comment from the server because he can't deal with having the women paying in the United States!! Or if you are going there for just a snack or drink, DON'T border, you are just wasting his time!
Horrible Service! – I've been to El Gordo several times as I live in the neighborhood. As others mentioned, the food is decent and cheap. I will strongly disagree about the "friendly service" however. First off, the staff barely speaks any English so it makes it very difficult to communicate. Most recently, I orded a combination of enchiladas and a taco, and was served a hard taco rather than soft. I politely asked our server if I could have a soft instead of a hard, his reply was "no, you didn't order a soft". I apologized and said I still would like one, he picked up my plate and started swearing under his breath as he stormed into the kitchen. Everyone in this tiny place heard and saw all of this, and were as appalled as I was. We promptly got up and left, and will never return again under any circumstances. I'm making all my friends, neighbors, and co-workers know about my experience there and to avoid at all costs.
Great food!!! great takeout – i am few blocks away from this place and stopped by with doubts in my mind if its any good. but i was very surprised with the food and service....it was really good....the ppl was very nice and welcoming...food is very cheap....awesome takeout...i wouldnt take a date there since its a bit fast food style..but great for taking food home...love it!!
Best in the West – My wife and I had been to El Gordo's a couple of times, and it was okay but nothing to drive out of the way for. However, that changed dramatically.
In 2008, El Gordo's went under new management. Now, my wife and I go there almost weekly. Great prices and great food. My wife's favorite is the Enchiladas Rancheras with the pork. My favorite is the Enchildas Verdes, which they will kick up a notch if you ask. We've had several things on the menu, and all are excellent.
My wife thinks they might use a little coconut milk in the rice, because it is creamy good--unlike most "mexican rice" you find. The refried beans are excellent as is the guacamole served with several of the dishes. Kids are free on Sunday, and so far when we've been in there the kids have been good... probably the food.
Service is friendly and prompt. Decor is simple and the establishment is clean and pleasant. Were the restaurant fancier they could certainly charge more for the food because it can't be beat in the western suburbs.

Webster >Restaurants > Streppa's Bistro
30 E. Main St., Webster, NY | Directions 1458043.212340 -77.429367
Mon. - Fri. 11am - 2pm;Sat. 5pm - 9pm;Sun. CLOSED
Sketchy – Have been to Streppa's several times. Always attentive and friendly service, and staff is accomodating to any strange requests. Salad's are the typical Rochester iceberg lettuce, but still disappointing to those who want some nutrients with dinner. I have had several dishes, and all have been fine, just nothing particularly remarkable. Servicable Italian food.
Wonderful! – Loved the people, very friendly, willing to help you with anything you wanted, found them very accommodating.
Food was good, service was quick and everyone including the "regulars" were very friendly. Was more of a small town, family business feel, which is a great change from the normal "treat you like a number" atmosphere of most paces now days.
Will definitely return.
Great service but.... – Well I don't know where to begin. I must tell you I really wanted to like this restaurant. It is close to where I live, hidden and out of the way with an open but kind of neat atmosphere. The fried calamari was excellent but everything went downhill from there.My wife ordered Artichokes French which is basically chicken stock, lemon juice, cream sherry and thickened with butter.We were only able to identify the lemon juice. She also ordered Veal Saltimboca which had basically the same sauce or should I say gravy. It was so bad my wife had to return it in favor of a Delmonico steak, which was not bad. I ended up with Tripe in red sauce. I have had Tripe in every place in Rochester and this rated about a 5 on a one to ten. The red sauce was not even close to being as good as Rockys' or Ronconnes'. Unfortunately there just was not enough positive about the place to make a return visit, however the service was excellent.

My prediction is that all "surpluses" achieved when the spending cap is based on he prior year's budeted amount will disappear if the spending cap is changed to be based on the prior year's expenditures. The incentive will be to spend up to the budgeted amount in the future to protect the cap. This will likely result in wasteful expenditures.
Please try and improve the timelines of the Eagle reporting and publication. The Sun Times had an article at least 36 hours earlier,
There are available slips for boaters to use while at the Tiki and the Tiki is open to the public
OK, lets start a fresh, clean slate and go on from here. The defeated councilors did what they thought was best for the City at that thankless job. The new councilors need to stop rah-rahing and pick up the gauntlet and bring all of us (house owners, condo owners, businesses, and visitors) of this great paradise together. Good Luck!
Regarding the Beach Renourishment, similiar work was done about 5 or 6 years ago at the same location. None of the counselors asked what time of year that work was done; and couldn't remember if it was particularly disturbing. Is it possible that it was done just before or just after the "season" when fewer people would be affected? This time it will be during the "season" requiring 24/7 disturbance of the peaceful enjoyment of nearby resident's properry. So, do the work around timeframes that do not disturb turtles and people.
The "scarlet letter" can NOT be downloaded
Is the Eagle going to publish the "scarlet letter" written by Mr. Magel as he promised in his response to the appropriate criticism raised during citizens forum? And just how is the "collegial" council going to function if the "bad guys" win seats? Should be entertaining! Anyone for a recall petition against Magel? And why weren't Trotter and Keister speaking up over this debacle. They had nothing to lose.
I am looking at the map on the City's web site and I see the streets identified in the above message. I am wondering why the side streets off of Maple are not also no parking zones similiar to all the side streets near the South Beach access. Specifically, Flamingo Circle; and Beachcomber, Arawak and Loyalty. They will now be used by beachgoers that cant park on Maple and are closer to the beach access pathway by the Maderia than all of those streets near South Beach that are identified as no parking. Is it that too little thought went into the Maple Avenue area?
Yes, BUT if the millage rate is based on the budget, doesn't there need to be clarity as to just what is exactly in the budget. Seems to me there are questions that need answers like:
1. Is there a 6% utility rate hike included or not
2. How is the extra $950,000 in additional operating expenses being funded; and why almost an additional $1 million can be justified in this economy
It was apparent that there were no answers to these questions that were agreed upon and this raises the issue of "transparency".
Additionally, the question raised by Ken Honecker relative to the cash flow problem in STRP collections versus debt payment was brushed off by the City Manager who stated - come to my office and I will explain it to you. That is NOT transparency and I think all of us are owed an explanation in open forum.
Thanks Stef.
One has to wonder at the "judgment" of Council Chairman Magel for even proposing subsidizing a major hospital complex for non-emergency care. Also, proposing a dedicated MI ambulance does NOT merit consideration without cost figures to MI taxpayers.
So, is the issuance of sea wall construction permits still on hold as was directed by City Council? Unbelievable!!!! Note that some of the councilors do NOT live on lots with sea walls. Is this catch 22 or what!!!
Well, for the vast majority of lots used to "cure" or stage panels for sea walls, there have been NO problems. Marco Island was built as a waterfront community consisting of canals and bays that are contained by reinforced cement sea walls. There are hundreds of miles of them and they are now failing after 40 + years since their installation.
This island infrastructure (unlike roads) is required to be maintained/replaced by lot owners at their expense.
It is a little disturbing when some councilors who do not have to bear this sea wall responsibility/expense because they live inland can all of a sudden stop all permitting (even if for only 30 days)because of this incident in which one councilor was injured.
What on earth were they thinking in halting the issuance of permits? Someone said at the council meeting it was like "throwing the baby out with the bath water".

One dollar a week to have emergency care near by sounds reasonable to me....
in response to marco826:

That's the problem - IT'S NOT EMERGENCY CARE as Marco 826 believes. Somehow the word has to go out to the voters that it's only clinical services provided NOT emergency care.
Why, after several WEEKS was there no article in the Eagle addressing the "non-binding" referendum being placed on the ballot in AUGUST addressing spending $750,000 for an additional number of hours in the evening at the NCH walk-in clinic on Bald EAGLE? I believe the only way the vast majority of part time residents can be made aware of this issue is by timely reporting and thoughtful commentary about the pluses and minuses of this proposal; and this paper is not providing that. Lets see how long it takes for the EAGLE to publish this letter that was submitted June 9th.
My position is that non-emergency, after hour demand for this service is NOT supported by what was stated as statistics at the Council meeting and that it's an outrage that we would have to contribute any funds for this unneeded service. NCH will benefit financially from the fees they charge treated patients without our adding to their coffers.
City-owned swales near beach access points could be metered - "turning lemons into lemonade". Just a thought
GFonda writes:Well, the Planning Board approved moving the petition for HORSE DRAWN CARRIAGES to the City Council; but eliminated the Bald Eagle staging area from the operation. Watching the presentation put on by the owners of the operation, there was some inconsistency as to where the pick-up and drop off points will be. At one point they spoke to being able to pick up at a person's house for a surprise anniversary; then stated that the pick-up and drop off points would be fixed. Also the routes seemed to be fixed, but left uncovered drop-off/pick-ups at the Island Country Club and the Yacht Club. Those two locations are apt to be popular reception sites (or even wedding sites). So there is some question as to whether the whole island could be used by the Company.
Operation on the island would only occur when there are firm reservations; if no reservations, then they wouldn't be doing any staging. What was not addressed is what happens if there are two reservations for the same day but hours apart. Would the horses and carriage return to the staging area to wait? Also, I found insufficient consideration being given to the HORSES. They need WATER periodically if they are used for extensive periods of time.

So, while we react to the Bear, the EAGLE has yet to write an article recapping the Council meeting held on the 4th of June which would result in a referendum to increase our taxes to provide funds to Naples Health Care facility. It's an outrage that our local paper doesn't address this issue - since many of our voters rely on the "local" newspaper on-line to keep abreast of the issues.
"The hope, from local cultural leaders, to make Winterberry Drive around the Center for the Arts a cultural district. Holley's long-term hope is to add studios for artists, to bring them to work and show there."
That should fit right in with the "putt-putt" golf across the street!
I agree that we should not encourage off-islanders to invade our beaches; BUT the beaches in Florida are public and we should not put our heads in the sand and ignore the fact as is plainly evident that non residents will come. The article is correct about the Tigertail "Beach" access. The "Beach" is a long trek from the parking lot; and there is a charge for non Collier county residents to use it. The article is incorrect in that there is NO "pull-off" to drop beachgoers next to the Madeira. That is one of several poor planning decisions made in the recent Collier Blvd construction.
I wrote a letter to the editor recently about MICA and the need to consider its future. MICA's existing parking lots are not fully used and there is significant room to expand parking in them.
As I stated before, we cannot stop off island people from using our beaches; and the volume of these beachgoers will increase.
Here are several suggestions:
1. Take over Resident's Beach and Sarazen Park parking by "eminent domaine". (It will never happen!!!)
2. Since the City owns the swales in the affected areas (by South Beach and Madeira),pave them over and install parking meters.
3. In jest, turn Marco Island into a gated community with controlled access onto and off the island at the two bridges. Therefore, only certain "acceptable" people could dip their little toes in our elite waters.
Good luck Susan and family. I'll definitely come back when I return from my home in Key West later this year.
Not much of a story. Where are the details?
Key West City Council is set up by Districts and the island is slightly smaller than Marco
And on top of this, there is a proposal afoot for horse drawn carriages on Marco roads. I kid you not!
I'm just wondering if the Sheriff Department has a fire boat that could be placed at the North end of the island at their fsacility. I have a problem believing that a fire boat can get quickly on the scene if the fire is some distance away from the location of the fire boat. Goodlands comes to mind or the Marco River.
It's time for Marco Island to secede from Collier County and form the "calusa republic".
Just wondering if this will raise the ire of City Council members who were left uninformed similar to when the last manager was dismissed over his lack of communications to our elected leaders.
If one calls 911, what ambulance service/company comes?
I wonder if it is possible for the survey to be made available to non MICA residents for their responses to be included - perhaps as a separate tabulation.
Please get back on subject. Do those of you that stand before the City Council at "community forum" think that your concerns are being addressed properly?
I am wondering if there are any pay raises related to this realignment of the organization and personnel involved. I DO hope this is NOT being done to circumvent the "no raise" promise around which the 2012 budget was based.
This is sooo confusing to us resident taxpayers (God know how the non-resident taxpayers can figure it out). The property taxes should NOT be raised higher than last year - whatever the millage rate turns out to be. In fact they should be lower to compensate for the worsening economic situation Marco Island taxpayers are facing. I've never understood the rationale for tying road resurfacing to the STRP. I thought there was always a line item in the operating/capital(?) budget for road resurfacing and that the schedule of its completion be tied to the STRP zones being torn up.
It IS a strange design appearance that was selected
Use the Farmer's Market profit to reduce Veteran's Park debt
I believe I suggested before that the Beautification Advisory Committee publish acceptable cul-de-sac plantings for homeowners residing on the cul-de-sacs to plant and maintain themselves. I know I would.
As I stated over 6 months ago, the debt costs should NOT be buried in the base rate, but should see "the light of day" and be visible - preferably on our property tax bill which may be tax deductible. I also believe all property owners should pay for the debt - probably equally.
Why dont we try and sell the excess water to other communities that are short rather than dumping it in the Gulf?
It would be helpful for the beautification committee (Sydney and others) to establish several planting/landscaping designs and costs to pick from and that also would be acceptable for improving the appearance of the cul de sac on our streets. My guess is that the ones that would participate are those that actually live around the cul de sac. I would, if I knew that I was complying with an overall acceptable plan.
If they couldn't breathe, how come they could yell non-stop? This whole episode was staged by those punks.
Stef is my neighbor and one could not be a better one. I do think that because we apparently do not have facilities on the island to hold and process individuals involved in these types of incidents, that it is risky to have one police officer transport multiple actively belligerent individuals to Naples without backup; or at least put them in a "paddy wagon" where they are caged in a separate compartment. Perhaps such a vehicle is available from the Sheriff's department in which case the Sheriff should be called in to do the transport to the Sheriff's facility in Naples. From what I remember of the incident from the original press reports, Stef handled the situation as best as could be expected under the circumstances. I am a big supporteer of our local police officers who do a fine job. I am curious if the young men were in fact convicted of something - maybe underage drinking, disturbing the peace, resisting arrest, etc.
I sent Frank the text message. But first, I tried calling all sorts of City offices including the non-emergency police line (since the meeting is held in the police building)- they all were on after hour voice messages. So, the last resort was to email Frank and hope he read the email during the meeting. There needs to be a way for us to inform someone when the audio/visuals on the meetings are not workng.
Unfortunately, the sound was off on the TV transmission for the first hour or so of the Council meeting yesterday. I would like to know why! Anyway, it appears that during that time, the Council approved a millage rate of 1.89 and also an add on for the Veteran's Park of .11. So, the total millage rate is now 1.99. Isn't that above the statutory rate of 1.98 that the Council originally approved that could not be exceeded? I am wondering why MITA is in favor of this based on Fay's comments as reported in the Eagle.George
What seems to be happening in the Marco Island Operating Budget development process is preservation of a spending cap amount. This seems backwards to me. Good efforts were made by the Budget committee and City staff to build a lean budget reflecting today's economic environment as well as funds needed to effectively operate the City with no degradation in services. Then some "Plug" amounts were added totalling in excess of $2 million in the form of Oil Spill contingency and Reserves build up, so as to preserve a spending cap, that in my opinion far exceeds our future requirements.
You Rock!!!!!
She has a point, in that the "parking" lot section in question is not being used as a prking lot, but rather as an apparent permanent construction/maintenance site for the hotel complete with porta potties, and construction trailors. This is NOT neighborly on the part of the Marriott to its northside neighbor who has to endure the noise, dust/dirt, and ugliness; remedial action should be taken immediately. The masonary wall the Marriott as erected for the other sections (East side) of the parking lot should be built on the north side between the "parking" area and San Marco Residences.
"Who is John Galt?"
Good job guys. Keep it up.
What about a Little League team? or do we already have one?
The City faces a serious shortage of parking spaces near the beach. The Easter Sunrise Service and 4th of July fireworks held on the beach are just two examples. Also, the two recently opened beach access pathways near the Marriott have no public parking facilities. I would like the City to negotiate a benefit from this Marriott proposal in the form of up to 100 (free or minimal cost/parking meters) parking spaces in the proposed Marriott garage for beachgoers. (The City would receive the revenue from these meters). After all, that is how we got the beach path from Mass Mutual.
I recommend that the first choice be reconsidered instead of the third choice based on the city survey if substantial funding is provided by non-City sources.

Had this on 2014-02-19 in Columbia, PA
A - Mostly opaque dark brown with a 1-finger tan head that drops quickly and leaves mild lace.
S - Toasted sour dough bread, cashew, some earthy hop floral.
T - Rich, sweet dark bread, roasted cashews, molasses, earthy spice, light char and finishing roasted and hop bitterness. I quite enjoy the flavor. Not bland.
M - Medium-thick body and light carbonation. Creamy, substantial feel. Nice.
O - This is a good beer. Bolder flavor than many browns. ABV isn't bad for such flavor. Will have this again.

Poured into a standard pint glass: color is brown, amber edges, head is tan, good 1/2 inch presentation; head dissipates to ring and fine bubbles with some lacing on the glass.
Smell is pleasant, nice semi sweet chocolate malt, some toast and maybe a touch of roast. very simple but well done.
Taste is malt forward, nice chocolate and toast balance, light biscuit and maybe some oats or wheat, light roast; hops are subtle, earthy, do not detract from this malt forward. ale.
Mouthfeel is the lone negative: malt sweetness presents first, but overtaken by harsh carbonation and possible lingering hop bitterness.
Overall solid flavor, presentation and aroma, poor mouthfeel and presence that detracts from this otherwise quality ale.

Bottled 26 Aug 2013.
Served cold into a Sam Adams shaped glass.
Goose Island's nut brown is a nice medium brown color with good clarity and thick off white head. It settles fairly quickly and leaves little lacing.
Aroma is malty and sweet with pleasant notes of nut and caramel.
Flavor is balanced but leaning towards the sweet end. More toffee and caramel, nuts, and a British yeast. Very low bitterness and almost no hop character at all but that's ok for these style.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and nicely carbonated with good balance and drinkability.
Overall a very nice warm weather session ale. Maybe not the most exciting beer a Goose Island makes but a solid year-round offering.

Sampled tonight on 2/5/14. Bottle chilled down to 36 degrees F in my beer cooler and poured into a brandy snifter.
Pours a very dark brown in color with a smaller beige head. Some spotty lacing is seen. The aroma is of roasted malts, caramel with a hint of nut. The taste is the same but has a bitter finish. A bit much for my liking. Average to lower carbonation. Overall, wasn't real pleased with this one.

I am usually a big fan of brown ales but this offering from Goose Island did not impress me.
Looks nice in a glass. Dark brown in color with a tan head.
Toasted malts, nutty, slightly sweet. Not very bitter.
Easy to drink but lacks flavor.
This beer, by itself is just okay. It would be much more enjoyable if paired with some food.

A: This brew pours a nice rich dark amber more towards ruby. It has a 1 finger off white head that doesn't last long but holds a light film for awhile. Nice and clear as well.
S: Very low hop aroma, a very malt forward brew. Dark fruit and a slight earthy note with a full malt richness.
T: Malty out of the gate with a light sweetness. Nice medium body, not slick. There is some earthy hop flavor hidden amongst the big maltiness. I get a quick hint of chocolate on the palate and it has a pleasant long lasting after taste that includes an ever-so-slight acidity that lingers. Moderate to low carbonation.
O: This Is quickly becoming one of my favorite Nut brown ales. This is what I would consider a malt forward 'comfort food'.

Smooth and light, very different from the color. You wouldn't expect cleansing ale properties from this brew but that's exactly what you get. The undertones are nutty so it's not too overbearing. It's enjoyable and sessionable, you can have more than a few. There isn't too much of any one characterstic in this brew.

Nut brown pours a brownish color, with a very small lacing head. There is a light nutty aroma, but lots of yeast aromas. The taste has strong yeast flavors, with light hints of nuts, there is a rather stale taste. Watery, stale, weak flavors. Overall a disappointment.

look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Pours a beautiful deep, dark brown, like mahogany with a half of a finger of oatmeal colored head that very quickly dissipated into a thin coating of wispy foam that coated the glass and collected at the center of the beer.
Aroma: Lots of malt! No, check that, lots of roasted malt! Dark bread and butter, with some wood and bark. Subtle hazelnut and chocolate notes and toffee. Very nice.
Taste: Roasted malt in both the front and back end of this beer, and some sweetness in the middles, like honey or burnt sugar. There's some nutty earthiness present too. The beer also has a very long finish, which seemed to last forever. For a malt lover like me, this is heaven!
Mouthfeel: Medium to full. It's a rich, chewy beer that coats the whole mouth with a smooth creaminess, that's true to the brown ale style. There's also some good carbonation to wake-up the taste buds.
Overall: This is an excellent brown ale! Nice and malty and full flavored. Damn, this is an excellent beer!

At the local distributor I discovered they had this in 1/6 bbl. It got good reviews so I figured try it! Pour from co2 tap system into a Sam Adams 23 oz Turbinator style glass. Bbl was labeled Illinois sourced keg.
A: dark, looks kinda like a glass of cola. One finger slightly tan head that quickly dissipates into a thin disk. soapy minimal lacing.
S: little chocolate hazelnut, caramel. Minimal hop smell of very slight aromatic citrus.
T: roasted nuts and chocolate abound. Very slight reminder of coffee and bread back there too.
M: medium creaminess due to well balanced carbonation and choice of ingredients. Smooth malty pre-finish. faintly dry ultimate finish.
O: Damn fine quaff. Goose Island delivers a solid nut brown ale with very drinkable characteristics to keep it interesting, a definite have again.
I like this brew because it is light enough to have a few and neutral & interesting enough to have with wings, burgers and other pub type fare. It paired well with spicy-bbq wings I made later for it.

I wouldn't think of this as an American-style brown ale. Not really roasty or hoppy. At best, it reminds me of something a chain brew pub would make.
This particular sampling was a draft poured very cold into a standard mixer glass, about 3/4" tan, spongy head, which died off in 1-2 minutes, leaving some surface suds, though little lace. Assuming enough wheat was added with the intent to enhance head retention, the result was disappointing.
The wheat could, however, account for what I felt was a lighter mouthfeel and more subtle malt flavor than what I had anticipated. Got some mild pale malt flavor and a modicum of honey/caramel sweetness. Roast and toast very subtle, if present at all. At the very least, a little more malt richness, while keeping the light-medium body, would make this more memorable.
As it is, it's alright. Something simple and non-obstructing to go with pub sandwich and fries.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, bottled on 4/12/2012. Pours slightly hazy reddish brown color with a nice 1-2 finger dense light khaki head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of caramel, chocolate, toast, toffee, nuttiness, dark bread, brown sugar, floral, and slight dark fruitiness. Excellent aromas with great complexity and balance of dark malt notes; with good strength. Taste of caramel, chocolate, toffee, brown bread, nuttiness, toast, brown sugar, floral, and slight dark fruits. Lingering notes of caramel, chocolate, toffee, brown bread, nuttiness, brown sugar, toast, and floral earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice balance and robustness of dark malt flavors; with good complexity and zero cloying flavors present after the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a creamy and fairly slick mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with hardly any warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a highly excellent brown ale! Great balance and robustness of dark malt flavors; with a great mouthfeel and smooth drinking. A highly enjoyable offering; one of the best brown ales I have had.

Pours brown with a ruby hue on the edges. There is a half finger of head that dissipates rather quickly. The nose is mildly nutty. The upfront flavor profile is dark bread with a very light touch of malty sweetness. There is a tingly, yet soft dry bitterness on the finish.

A pint on tap in Florida. Pours dark brown with a very durable, creamy tan head. The aroma suggests a mix of light, medium and, perhaps, some dark malts with a complexity such as one might get from a bit of wild yeast.
Some nice complexity in the taste too, with a overall medium roasted malt base and some earthy British hops.
The feel is very smooth, with good carbonation but a touch too watery.
O: clearly above average for style.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a pint glass, served at cellar temp.
Cola Brown with an attractive cappuchino head, nominal lacing.
aroma: cocoa, cocoa and more cocoa. This one conjures up memories of driving past a chocolate factory.
mouthfeel is superb, silky, mousse-like.
taste: cocoa again, it's like drinking Malt-o-Meal. Scarcely any Hops with just a touch of bitterness in a slightly burnt way.
Notes; Goose Island shows once again that they can give quality English Beers a run for the money. This is a world class beer in my opinion and is stellar in every way. Will become a Winter staple for sure.

Nice dark cloudy brown, beer bottle color. Thin light tan head.
Potent nose with hints of almond and roastiness. Perhaps a hint of clove.
Taste is very malt forward, with soft notes of caramel, almond, condensed milk.
Very light body with a sharp bite at the end.
A decent brown ale, but lacking in the complexity and body to make it a more American Brown. Seems to be much more in line with a classic English Brown. Glad to have tried it, but not gonna get it again.

A: The beer is a deep dark brown color, with a thin off-white head that fades quickly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains roasted malts, honey, maple, caramel and a touch hops.
T: The taste starts out sweet with flavors of honey, maple and caramel. Then a hearty malt character come in. The hops presence is mild but complementary and brings a good balance. The after-taste is slightly sweet.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.
O: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, mild kick, good representation of style, this si a decent brown ale to drink for a while.

From bottle to a pint glass, nice dark brown with a creamy tan head. The smell held roasted notes and Carmel hints with brown sugar depth. The taste followed suit with a solid rich roasted malty flavor, sweetness a contrasting bitter at the end. Mouthfeel is right on target as its thick enough to be hearty but is so easy to drink it could be a everyday beer, I truly enjoyed this beer....and will again soon.

A 355ml bottle with a bottled-on date of April 12th 2012. Picked up a little while back from Trembling Madness in York.
Poured into a straight pint glass. Bottle conditioned(?). A deep reddish-brown hue with faint haze and low carbonation. Produces a huge head of creamy light brown foam that hangs around for a few minutes before subsiding. Aroma of sweet caramel malt with notes of roasted grain, chocolate, nuttiness, brown sugar, dried fruit, mild port, earthy yeast and faint stewed hops. There is a whisper of hoppy pine in the background, as well as a subtle twinge of sourness. Pretty good.
Tastes of sweet caramel malt with a dry finish. Notes of caramel/toffee, chocolate, roasted grain, nuts, brown sugar, dried fruit, earthy yeast and stewed hops. Faint pine resin in the background, followed by a mild bitterness upon swallowing. Mouthfeel is smooth and lightly tingly, but rather flat and lacking in texture. Decent body for the style - could perhaps be a tad thicker. Slightly astringent, with an aftertaste of caramel malt, chocolate and earthy yeast.
Pretty good; it goes down easily enough. Plenty of dark malt notes along with some chocolate and a residual sweetness. The aroma is satisfyingly complex, while the flavour seems a little muted by comparison. The body is slightly thin, and where has the carbonation disappeared to? Overall, a decent malty brew that suits the colder months of the year. Worth sampling if you come across it.

Pours out a perfectly crystal clear brown, I force pour a frothy head that disappears almost immediately. This beer has a rich amber hue when held up to the light; No head means no lacing. Zero haze, zero visible carbonation.
The nose is honey, chocolate, and nuts with some sweet sourdough bread notes, and the flavor is spot on, in perfect harmony with the scents it produces. This is a quaffable malty brew with nary a hop to be tasted, and it is really delicious!
Mouthfeel is smooth and light, not too syrupy or sticky. There is very little carbonation to speak of in my sample but I find myself enjoying the way this beer goes down.
Overall a really delightful nutty brown beer, I could see myself drinking pint after pint of this with a good book in front of a roaring fireplace!

Poured this into a pint glass. It has a black color body with a small tan head, that doesn't hang around long. The aroma has a roasted malt aroma with a touch of chocolate.
The taste has a great roasty malt flavor, with a chocolate hint to it. Also the a nutty finish to it makes it very tasty.
The mouth feel is really good and overall a really good brown ale.
