James Page Burly Brown Ale

Brewed by Stevens Point Brewery
Style: Brown Ale
Stevens Point, Wisconsin USA

Aroma was decent,mapley sweet malt,color was deep amber, taste was almost a sugary sweetness, didn’t detect the roasted barley or any nuttiness. Body was highly carbonated and thin. Your typical going for the masses brown ale

Pours a amber brownish color.Had a light malt aroma,with hint of chiocolate malt.Has a ok flavor,was expecting alittle more though,has a light mouthfeel to it.Not bad,but not the greatest.

Pours like a typical brown ale. The head was unusually large and took some time to settle. Aroma was slightly nutty with a bit of chocolate roast. Not real complex and could have been more fuller flavored. Mild chocolate, light caramel and toffee flavor. Finishes slightly nutty and watery. Not bad if the beer selection is small.

I’m not a brown ale fan but I like this beer. Slightly nutty aroma could be a little stronger. Pours light brown with a hint of red. Toasty tasting with a nutty flavor many ales have trouble finding. This nuttyness lasts long into the aftertaste and is pleasant. Very good brown.

Pours a deep amber color with red highlights and a slightly off-white head that fades over time. Aroma of toasted malts, grains, hops and some fruit accents. Flavor of slightly sweet malt with hop and citrus with some bitter/sourness in the finish.

Had this one bottled. Very deep reddish brown color, clear with a moderate head of white, nose of peanuts, chocolate and a little orange, taste of hops and a bit sweet. Pretty good!

Bottle and served in my Flossmoor pint glass:

Pours more ruby than brown with a fading frothy head and surprisingly good lacing. The aroma has the standards brown ale characteristics of walnut, carmel and toasted malting, grassy hops. This one also has some pear, cherry, and dusty yeast esters. The taste leaves something to be desired with a strange mix of sweet malt and finish of lactic sourness and acidic fruits. The off flavors seem to mask any nutty or caramel goodness that could have been underneath. The palate is watery and harsh, yeasty dry. I will take a pass if offered this brew again.

Bottle poured a clear dark amber with a small amber head. Aromas of toffee, nuts, and strong carmel. Palate was medium bodied ,but a little light for the style. Flavors of carmel, toffee, nuts, abnd a touch of cocoa with a slightly dry, lightly bitter finish.
