Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a sturdy dark brown color with a good sustaining finger’s worth of white foamy head. Moderate lace.
The aroma had some bread, caramel/toffee, roasted nuts, light cocoa powder, light toast. Earthy/grassy hops, light wood and ended with what I thought was some nutmeg. Different, but I didn’t mind.
The flavor brought forth the sweet and the roast fairly nice and richly turned it towards the aftertaste. Finish got a little sticky as that spice (if it was the nutmeg) didn’t seem to show any presence.
The feel was about medium bodied with a good sessionability about it. Carbonation felt good. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, nice brown ale. Was that really nutmeg in this? Not sure.
