Redhook Nut Brown Ale

Brewed by Redhook Brewery
Style: Brown Ale
Woodinville, Washington USA

Pours a three-fingered cream head that fades quickly leaving a trace of lace. Nice clear, deep amber color. Light carbonation and medium bodied. Slight nutty nose. Starts on the sweet side with hops in background and finishes fairly smooth. $1.25 for a 12 oz bottle from Capital Convenience Cocord, NH.

Not really what I expected having sampled other offerings of Redhook Brewery. Not a real lot of flavor in my opinion

Cool label = extra points for appearance. Makes me smile. Rivals Shiner bock in ease of back porch summer swill. Not too sweet, not too filling, not too.....anything. Toki torches, mesquite BBQ, Toni Price on the radio. I’ll drink this again.

Toasty aroma of earth and hazelnuts. Medium sweet and caramely hops. Thick mouthfeel and soft palate. Spruce notes in the finish.

Toasty and roasted with a foresty feel to it. The malts are very rich and the hops is very light on the palate. quite nice.

mild aroma of sweetness and hops, the body is nutty and a bit roasty. it ends with a slight bitterness.

The aroma has toasted malt, some nuts, a light hopping, and coffee. The appearance is a red brown with a foamy medium head that falls to a small one rather fast. However, it is quite persistent. The flavor is bitter sweet. I detect the toasted malt and hops up front and the nuttiness comes at the back. The palate is just thick enough to be pleasing. The only thing keeping this beer from getting a higher score is the vegetable flavor I am getting in the aftertaste.

Poured mahogany, with very little head, Aroma very hard to pick up, especially in a bar. Initial nutty smoked grains - but not as nutty has many nut browns - followed by lots of sweet, caramel malts, maybe some dark fruits as well. Palate was thin with a fairly lazy carbonation. A rather sweet beer, could easily put down a lot in a short amount of time. Overall, an upbeat beer that will be one of the better things on tap at most bars.
