The malt bill gives a subtle nutty & toasty flavors and the chocolate malt provides a rich cocoa flavor with aromas that range from roasted coffee to chocolate-covered dark fruits. The hops used provides excellent bitterness in relation to the chocolate notes of the malt. The flavor and aroma provide clean floral, fruity and herbal notes. A light dose of hops brings balance to all.

On tap at Atlanta airport. Pours a medium copper color, with small head. Aroma is light caramel and roasted nuts. Flavor is a smooth, mild nutty one, with caramel and toffee. Not bad.

This beer came in my beer club. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium brown color with a medium sized tan head. The aroma was sweet chocolate with a touch of roasty malts and coffee. The flavor was sweetish roasty and toasty malts with a lightly bitter undertone and a hint of floral hops. Medium bodied and it turns a bit dry towards the finish. Well done.

Pours a light reddish brown color with a beige head. Caramel malty aroma. Smooth and slightly sweet. Little nutty aftertaste. Rather malty. It is a good session, but it is not a very complex beer, but I think that the brewers were going for a simple easy brown ale.

Georgia Brown is a very good brown ale. Light sweet malt in the aroma. Flavor has some brown sugar and malt as well, but the hops are far too light, even for a style that doesn’t require loads of hops.
