Hints of nuts and chocolate dancing on your tongue, balanced bitterness, where hops and malts are spun with every sip, you'll feel the glory, this brown ale's gonna tell a Super Bowl story!

Draft at some wine bar in VT. Lovely dark pour. Nose is nutty and some chocolate. Tastes much the same little soy umami as well. Smoothbpalate.

Can to mug.
Appearance: dark brown color with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some mild lace
Aroma: big nutty roasty and toastiness, caramel/toffee malts, some chocolatey tones, mild earthiness
Flavor: mildly sweet through the prior mentioned tones, but eventually gets a bit more balanced with the toastiness and roastiness; semi-nutty and chocolatey aftertaste
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, finishes nutty, chocolatey and toasty
Overall: very nicely done brown ale, whether it's an English style or American style, I'd still return to this.

Pours a solid dark brown with ruby edges and a good sized tan head that slowly recedes. Chocolate caramel and hints of nut and earth.
