Commercial Description:
We threw in 13 different grains to make this American style brown ale as complex as the tax deal that financed Cleveland Brown Stadium. We hit the mark with this one, now if those Browns could just do the same...

tap. Fortunately this beer is better than the football team. black pour with thick tan foamy head. big nut, small smoke and sour malt aroma. Closer to a Porter than a brown. This is a sour bitch. nice nut and creamy mouth. That last line just sounds wrong. good brew.

Draught at Mountain Sun. Very dark brown color, almost black. Small tan white head. Aroma of roasted coffee, notes of chocolate and the Kiohoga River. Ends earthy, short bitterness. Nice brown ale.

Pretty big "brown." Could be Java Porter’s little brother. Full bodied and pretty roasty. Has a sharpish alcohol nip, with a rounded burntness to match. Slight fruitiness in the hops. Astringent, sourish finish. Very interesting.

On Tap: I guess it was a good thing I finished off with such a weak beer, ABV speaking. Because from the porter and stout I had at Southern Sun, I had a pretty good buzz going. Not really that brown, more towards the dark-dark brown/black side of things. A little bit of sharpness to the flavor. But still some good nutty flavors. I think this would go well with a big ass hamburger or good cut of steak.

Draught. Pours dark nut brown with an edgy tan head. Chocolate nutty malt, toasted aroma. Hoppy chocolate and roasted caramel malt flavor with a moderately acidic finish.

On tap at the Southern Sun Location. Poured a deeper reddish / brown color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas and tastes of nuts, caramel, and toasted malts.

Crushed with Jakebra on tap at the brewpub. Ok brown. A little sour. There’s some nice roast, but just not that great. Average.
