Growlette share. Thanks Doug.
I poured my portion into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a milky brown chocolate color. Sly finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated at a nice pace. Some light lacing, somewhat stringy.
The aroma starts with a nice balance between the sweet to the roasty portions of chocolate malt to nutty maltiness. Caramel and toffee notes roll over a mild roast. Subtle grassy/earthy hops to ride underneath.
The flavor yields to the sweet roasty taste of the nuts and chocolate malts. Nutty smooth sweet aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this was about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Quite smooth with the roast playing nicely with the malts on my tongue.
Overall, really nice English styled brown ale that I would have again.
