No bristlecones were harmed in the production of this award winning beer. Deep chocolate brown and an amber head, Bristlecone Brown Ale is a seasonal beer and available for a short time. We chose the name as a tribute to the regal Great Basin Bristlecone pine. Among these stately survivors is the 4,765 year-old Methuselah, the oldest living inhabitant of North America. Its exact location is kept secret as an older relative nicknamed “Prometheus” was unfortunately cut down in 1964.
This particular long-living species is typically found in the higher elevations of Nevada, California and Utah’s Wasatch Range. Due to cold temperatures, high winds, and dry soils, these pines grow very slowly.

More beer from mother in law, wait a minute, how did she know I couldn’t get Uinta in AK. No worries, I’m grateful.
This was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy brown color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about a minute. There was some light lacing sticking and then sliding down into the beer.
The smell had a decent nutty/burnt caramel with a crisp leafy - ness to it (reminiscent of Autumn).
The taste was semi - sweet with a nice robust and somewhat roasty to burnt caramel to nuttiness with a light toffee coming in to satisfy.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was appropriately styled and was good for me.
Overall, nice brown ale I could definitely see myself coming back to if I could get it again. So glad to have a brown ale on this murky SE Alaskan night in what we call Autumn right now.

Pours clear, deep chestnut with a thick tan head. Chocolate malt, roast aroma. Taste is a bit of ashy coffee, light caramel, chocolate malt. Fairly thin, but with a pretty decent flavour.
