Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a sturdy fairly dark brown color with a finger’s worth of tan foamy head. Light stringy lace.
The aroma had some nuts, caramel/toffee malts, roast, milk chocolate, brown sugar and some sweet herbal tones. Ended with a little bit of earthy hops.
The flavor had some sweet to roasty tones blending together nicely. Soft sweet nutty aftertaste with a slight creamy to chocolatey finish.
The feel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation was stiff, basically there, but seemed to just hit just a touch more than expected. ABV felt fine.
Overall, equivalent to an English brown ale, this was Rochester Mill’s version of one.
