Heavyweight Nay Trouse Mild

Formerly brewed at Heavyweight Brewing Company
Style: Mild Ale
Ocean Township, New Jersey USA

Poured a dark brown color with a small, light tan head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malt, some dried fruits, chocolate, and spruce. Taste of caramel malt, some light smoke, nuts, and dried fruits,with a faint tartness in the background. Very creamy mouthfeel.

Cask Conditioned at Mahar’s in Albany, NY. Excellent dark beer, surprisingly easy to drink. Roasted flavor excells above the nice hop bite.

Draft at d.b.a. Dark garnet pour, mostly lasting off-white head displays regular shaped bubbles. Soft yet aromatic toasted malts come out grainy while coffee/pecan roastiness ensures the sweetness limitations. Earthy and herbal hops remain in the background while blackberry, fig, grape notes climbs to the fore scene with more agility than I can shake a stick at. Soft, smooth, dryish palate, creamy light bodied. No acidity to speak of, remarkable balance. Highly balanced and flavourful mild, a thinking man’s session beer Josh would call it. Excellent stuff, heavyweight impresses me again.
