Heavyweight Nay Trouse Mild

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

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

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.

On tap at the Drafting Room in Exton, PA. Cask conditioned. Poured a dark brown color with a very small sized off white head. Aromas and tastes of nuts, caramel, light chocolates, and very light dark fruits. Nice subtle aromas and tastes. Very easy to drink.

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.

Chocolate, raisins and light roastiness in the aroma. Opaque reddish brown body with a low off white head that recedes to partial cover. Dark pit fruit flavours up front are joined by ashy, roasty and cocoa characteristics leading through to a moderate finishing bitterness. Medium light body with moderate, refreshing carbonation. Sampled on tap at D.B.A. in NYC with Olivier_MTL and Rastacouere.

Yep, Drafting Room. Poured darker brown with a tan head. Aroma is carmel, nuts, and dark fruits. Flavors mirror the nose with a little bit of smoke present. Very smooth and drinkable.

on cask at the Spuyten Duyvil. dark brown color, some gold at the edges, some red at other edges. quite the optical illusion! smoky and cigar tobacco aroma. toffee malt too. nice silky texture, sublime carbonation. flavor starts like watered kaluha, then gets a little peaty, and finishes with sweeter toffee malt and smokiness. my favorite mild.

Tap at Waterfront Ale House, Brooklyn - dark brownish copper with rather large, foamy head - roasty, almost smokey aroma - quite dry, but still refreshing - lots of subtle cocoa and dark fruit - smoke, wood - I could drink a whole keg of this.
