A legend in our line up, you don't need first chair to enjoy First Trax. This chocolatey, nutty Ale is a Fernie classic. Brewed with seven specialty malts, this deep Brown Ale has a surprisingly smooth mouthfeel. Roasted malts result in a wonderful chocolatey & nutty brew. Refreshing, fulfilling & award-winning!

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Dark mahogany color with persistent compact head. Light aroma of roasted malt, dust, ashes. The body is not too thin; caramel flavor, with relatively low bitterness and lack of character.
Clean but boring.

Bottled. An amber beer with a lazing tan head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and bread. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, butter, caramel, and straw, leading to a dry finsih.

A light clear brown ale with a medium light moka head. Light roasted malt and carmale aroma, a bit peaty. In mouth, a pleasant surprise, with a restrained roasted caramel malt, light nuttyness, and light chocolate bitterness in final. I agree there is some lactic overtones, but the finale is all nuts, as a good classic brown ale. Can from Capflu, Dec. 2006.

Golden brown, toasty nutty aroma. Taste is sweeter, dash of nuttiness and brown sugar, probably a little thinner than I’d like.
