Commercial Description:
This Nut Brown is brewed with English Ale yeast. In English tradition, we use only English Fuggle hops, which are low in bitterness and produce a mild floral hop taste. The complexity of this Nut Brown is created mainly by the Chocolate and Dark Chocolate malted barley.

There is a roasted coffee flavor with hints of chocolate and nutty or nutmeg finish on the back of the tongue. This Nut Brown has the widest spectrum of flavors of any Nut Brown on the market.

PAIRS GREAT WITH STEAKS AND SAUTEES

Poured a cola brown with a medium dissipating beige head. Roasted malt aroma with light hops. Malty flavor with a light nut flavor. Slightly sour finish. Pretty good.

Dark amber out of the bottle with a whispy thin off white head. Burnt sugar nose. Seems thin with some caramel sweetness and faint roasted grain notes. Not very interesting.

Reddish brown hue with a short frothy off-white head and good lace. The aroma hints of cashews, caramelized malts, mild coco flakes, faint aromatic hops, and a off band-aid ester. The taste starts with a zesty and caramel presence. Undertones of nuts and mocha found within. The short finish displays a bready and bitter combo with a hint of coffee. The mouthfeel is good for a brown ale, lively and refreshing, dry and chalky in the finish. Just average but good enough for a drink or two, it is not nutty enough however. Thanks again Eric for the bottle.

nice, subtle, sweet coco aroma. dark brown and ruby, pretty. cute frothy head, slightly tan. a bit sweet, a bit chocolate, a bit sour, a bit cremey. a little toasty little nut brown, good brew, but i'd actually rather have their pils! good thanks to taverntannerboy.

Brown to deep garnet color, a tan head that is a bit thin. This beer, like the rest from this brewery, is brilliantly clear. Notes of roast malt, a nuttiness, and a fruitiness all together in the aroma. Nice malty beer. Fairly fruity tasting as well. The promised nuttiness in the nose is not as apparent in the taste. Appropriately there is not much hop presence anywhere. This allows for the malt to come through. This beer does not quite deliver though. It is good just missing some nut brown malt complexity.

Pours a nice dark brown, with thin white head that leaves promptly. Light chocolate aroma, some malt. Mmm, caramel and nuttiness flavors stand out the most, some chocolate. Very nice body with a pleasing finish. A very good brown.

Nice, simple, thin session beer with fine chocolate notes and a long sweet finish. Finally a Nut brown that doesn't have "nutty" in my rating!!!
