kramer (2407), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 9, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear dark amber body with a small fizzy off-white head that vanishes quickly. The nose is quite sweet smelling with brown sugar, husky grains, and a nice light toasted nutty quality. The flavor is sweet as well, it does kinda remind me of pecan pie actually. Brown sugar and toasted nuts with a pie crust like maltiness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, pretty heavy for a Brown Ale, with nice light fizzy carbonation. Overall a pretty nice effort with a lot of flavor. Fratto (670), Arlington, Texas, USA Nov 4, 2009 Bottle from Cavie. Faint pecan aroma. Pecan flavor, but also malts and a little spice. Kind of watery. Cavie (1317), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Nov 1, 2009 Bottle courtesy of brentfeesh. Clear red color. Aroma has just a hint of nuts, obviously pecan. Also has some sweet malts on the nose. Tastes of caramelized malts with a second wave of dry nuts. For what it is, this is quite refreshing. Finish is a little dry and bitter but not in a bad way. TheDutchman (18), Louisiana, USA Oct 27, 2009 Poured from a bottle it has a nice pecan malt aroma. Clear reddish amber color with decent head. Tastes of pecans and brown sugar. Very smooth no bitterness. I really enjoyed this. EvilKingWilson (11), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA Oct 20, 2009 this is probably the beer i drink the most. i live in mississippi so i can get it anywhere. very good session beer and very easy to drink. it has a nice nutty taste but gos away quickly. not a great beer, but good for a local mississippi brew. TheBeerOrg (1563), Kentucky, USA Oct 17, 2009 Pours brownish amber with a mostly receding off-white head. Notes of nuts, toffee, and caramel. Medium to full bodied with moderate carbonation. Brigadier (1220), Chagrin Falls, Ohio, USA Oct 17, 2009 12 oz bottle
Thanks go out to a generous trader for sending me a handful of Lazy Magnolia beers. This is the first one I have had the chance to try and overall it was not too bad. For an easy drinking brown ale it is just what is needed some nights.
Aroma / Appearance - The deep ruby red body filtered a minimal amount of light creating a dusky impression through the glass. Short lived in nature the murky white head give it another dimension. Roasted pecans and cinnamon reminded me of a state fair’s confectionery stand. Fairly standard for the most part the nuttiness gives it a bit more depth.
Flavor / Palate - Nuttiness and hoppiness play against each other in a fluid mouthfeel that rinses across the palate. Fading fast it leaves remnants of sweetness on the throat that taste like a pecan pie with traces of chocolate chips. Very balanced this has been tweaked to almost perfection. RCL (1443), Waltham, Massachusetts, USA Oct 14, 2009 The aroma is like some sort of canned pecan pie filling that has gone a bit off. Tastes better than it smells, which isn’t saying a lot. Fairly nutty finish.
