Chop It Up starts out as our base brown ale (Bean There, Brown That) before getting the “Pastry” treatment. In this case, toasted coconut, chocolate, and roasted hazelnuts! Sweet and decandent, yet light and nimble enough to be quite drinkable.

16 oz can. Aroma shows bold hazelnut and chocolate. Flavor has hazelnut upfront with a chocolate center and a coconut finish. Body is about normal for a brown ale. Adjuncts provide a lot of character.

Can (9/24/21) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's a murky opaque brown with nice sparkle, 1/2-finger width beige head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong coconut and hazelnuts with milder lactose, chocolate and roasted malt. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, good strength to aroma and flavor with nice complexity and balance. Very enjoyable!

Good layers, chocolate then coconut then coffee cherries then hazelnut, moderately sweet yet never cloy or syrupy. Surprisingly deep for such a medium-bodied beer, and a modest bitter nutty finish holds the sweetness in check. A full sixteen ounces grows a bit much on the palate--the cacao and coconut eventually become clingy--but a nice pint nonetheless.

Can from Craft Brewed. Pours a hazy brown with a finger of beige head that lingers, then dissipates. Big rich cacao nib and caramel nose with coffee and mounds bar aromas. Thick and chewy which is great for such a low abv brown. Sweet, but some coffee-like bitterness that cuts the sweetness. Lingering caramel, coconut and cacao notes. Smooth, rich and decadent.
