Lazy Magnolia Southern Pecan

Brewed by Lazy Magnolia Brewing Company
Style: Brown Ale
Kiln, Mississippi USA

Thanks to a BA guy who was hanging around the The LoSBD table at DLD. Unbeknownst to him, he gave me a new state.
With my dietary woes, I get much of my protein from nuts and beans. I’m sure glad that this was seasoned with the former.
From the bottle it poured a light brown body (chestnut, perhaps?) with a modest white head. It has a sweet worty aroma enhanced by what seemed to be a pecan extract. Just enough of a soft nut bitterness is added to the flavor to keep it from getting cloying. Sessionable.

Pours a clear brownish amber with a small dense head which dissipates very quickly leaving very little lacing or foam. Aroma is of sweet malts, caramel, and, of course pecans. Starts off with a very sweet malt blast followed by a strong roasted pecan flavor with hints of caramel. Finishes with a light hoppy bitterness. Medium bodied and relatively creamy for the style. Carbonation fizzed a little on the tongue. I could drink this one all night. I would rate this as one of the better nut brown ales I’ve had and would definitely seek it out.

sampled at dark lord day 2008. pours a dark burgundy color, thin tan head, nice lacing. aroma is sweet something. sweet, caramelly flavor. i didn’t catch the nuts. smooth and full bodied. pretty good brew.

thanks to bockyhorsey for bringing this one... pours a dark brown shade of orangey/amber with a thin off white ring of foam. dried herbs and a grassy hop aroma mix with toffee and dry roasted nuts. the palate is lightly sweet and caramely with a faint nutty flavor and mild grassy notes on the finish. there’s not a whole lot going on with this one. medium body with soft carbonation.

Sampled at the Hellbilly tasting. Thanks Bockeyhorsey! Pours a nice amber orange with a small tan head. Aroma of brown sugar and roasty nuts and malt. Flavor is similar, but the nuts didn’t come through as much on the tongue. Sweet and easy drinking.
If beer and nuts don’t mix, why do they make Beer Nuts?

Sampled via Bockyhorsey at the Hellbilliy tasting. THANK YOU!!! Screw "conventional wisdom" that "nuts and beer don’t mix". This is a tasty beer!!! Burnt orange bordering blood-red (a theme of the night), this beer is pure Mississippi sweet tea...natural sugar and buttered-pecan. Yummy. Mild grassy notes reminiscent of the Great Plain states. Head to the storm cellar...a twister is a brewin’!!!

Sampled at the Hellbilly Phoenix tasting (4/13/08). Bottle courtesy of Bockyhorsey. Pours a clear ruby color with minimal white head. Nose is caramel malts, molasses and toasted nuts. Palate is much like it smells: caramel, brown sugar and a touch of spice. Liquid pecan pie? Not my favorite style, but a decent representation I suppose.

12oz bottle. Perfect, Reddish-brown color, nice creamy tan head. Aroma of caramel and some nutty mealiness. Flavor is a sweet malt, buttery, caramel, and a distant oiliness of pecans. Mostly a nut flavor from the malts not so much of the pecans. Overall it is a very drinkable beer and very enjoyable. When in Mississippi this is the beer I will look for!
