Our "Brown Ale" is a malty brown ale with dark amber hues. There’s a velvety smooth body with a light bitter finish from our friend the Chinook hop. We’ve struck a balance to the bitterness with a hint of spiciness while using Tettang hops to give this ale a pleasurable aroma. We live in Las Vegas and enjoy the surrounding area of Red Rock Canyon. Do yourself a favor: Get back to nature. Get a beer. Enjoy it!

Draft pour. Pours dark with a very sugar sweet and malty aroma. On the sweeter side too on the flavor with a nutty finish. Some hints of chocolate too. Not bad.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a caramel-brown color with a medium sized foamy white head that faded and left good lacing. The aroma was dryish wood, nut, a hint of cherry and caramel. The flavor was wood, tobacco and hint of blended scotch. Medium length finish. Medium body and fairly smooth. Ok.

22oz bomber pours clear amber with copper hues and thin tan head. The aroma is kind of a mix of roasted malts, some nuttiness and then a bit of musty dark fruity esters. The taste is nice for a balanced yet rich brown ale with roasted malts, nutty goodness, some malty earthiness and then it runs into spicy hoppy notes. This is a tasty brown for sure.
