Pumphouse Battalion Extra Brown Ale

Brewed by Pumphouse Brewery and Restaurant
Style: Brown Ale
Longmont, Colorado USA

Deep brown; frothy, but thinnish head; nice lace left behind. Lively carbonation; somewhat light-bodied. Big roasted malts, sharp chocolate, toasted bread, nuts. Some coffee, too. Hardly any sweetness. Bitterness and sourness follow up in the finish. Middle-of-the-road brown.

draft: looks like a brown ale. Has a malty, roasty aroma. but the flavor is initially lactic. However, w/ food, it turns into a middle of the road brown ale & the lactic/sour qualities disappear

Draught. Body is dark brown. Aroma is moderately malty (caramel, nuts), lightly yeasty (dough). Flavor is moderately sweet, moderately acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation. Very watery, very simple, and too sour to be pleasant.
