Back Street ¡Del Boca Vista!-Oatmeal Raisin Brown

Brewed by Back Street Brewery (Vista)
Style: Brown Ale
Vista, California USA

From the Jug at the GABF Colorado Convention Center, Denver 09/10/2008 Fruit aroma. Dark coloured strong in alcohol and fruity with a crisp and dry malt finish.

I’m going by memory on this one, it’s been along time since it’s be available. Pours a deep brown hue, with some foxy dark amber peeks. The nose was very malty with the raisins filling in the back, nice. Flavor had rich, thick maltiness leading to notes of brown sugar, caramel, and dark fruits. The raisins add a nice finish, smooth and extremely inviting brew, would be an excellent beer to pair with a nice piece cut of meat, or a plate of "pork chops ’n applesause"...

It’s like drinknig a healthy breakfast An original twist to the brown ales commonly found at BSB, very good.
