Commercial Description:
Our most popular brewmaster special brought back by overwhelming requests. A classic British nut brown ale. Full bodied, complex and interesting yet mild in flavor. Our interpretation of this style has distinctive hop aroma and flavor. (O.G.-1.052, IBUs 23)

Growler from the brewpub. Pours dark brownish amber with quickly dissipating head. Malty aroma with hints of chocolate. The flavor has apparent nuttiness, caramel malts, and a touch of roastiness. Most drinkable, this.

Dark, ruby tinted brew with a frothy light mocha head. Sweet malt aroma. Slightly sweet but lacking in fullness of body and depth of flavor to go World Class.

Clear, bright reddish-brown body with substantial carbonation and a nice, creamy head with decent retention. Aroma of caramel, mild dark fruit, a note of warm diacetyl, and hints of veggies and vague earthy hops. Medium-high sweet fruit and caramel flavors with a hint of tobacco and creamy nuttiness. Building hop character with some toasty grain and hop bitterness. Fairly clean and well-rounded. Medium body with palatable sweetness and a creamy texture. Solid brown ale, but could benefit from more attenuation. I bet this has a strong following among non beer geeks. Thanks SpringsLicker.

A very nice brown when poured into the glass. On the lighter side of Medium carbonation. Forgot to smell it though (so gave it a 5). Very pleasant on the palate. Nice with cheese and crackers.

Brown in colour with a low to medium amount of carbonation. Aromas of nuts, malt, and toffee are dominant. There are flavor notes of caramel and chocolate malts, nuts, herbascious hops, and a touch of bread. It also has a lasting sweet finish. Very complex.

Tasty nut brown, nutty at first but flavor fades somewhat. Still a nice ale though with good roasted flavor.

Bottle; Creamy, medium head and rich dark drown color. Smells of toasted nuts. At first, a nutty flavor but then you detect a milk chocolate flavor. Low carbonation. Smooth, easy drinking Brown Ale.

Pours with an amber-brown body topped by a medium thick to thick head with some lacing. The aroma is slighlty sweet and malty with a slight mustiness. The flavor is slightly sweet and malty with a slight nut note and a nice roastiness. Medium bodied, slightly tingly and a touch dry.
