Very nice latte foam on a dark deep brown body. Aroma is very good cocoa and brown sugar, soft plum. Taste is mellow brown sugar, thin molasses, coffee hints, ends thin and a little wet. Some nice elements, but ultimately it's simply okay.

Taster at the brewery. Appearence: hazy brown with a tan head Aroma: roasted malt with low sweethess Taste: similar with some smoky notes and hoppy and malt bitterness Overall: pretty good, maybe it's a bit more bitter than I would prefer

On tap at Luppolo, pours a hazy dark reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted nuts, bready malt and some vegetal notes from the chestnuts. Flavour is along the same lines, with toasted caramel, bready malt and some herbal nuttiness. Pleasant enough but nothing special.

Chestnut colour. Thin head. Nutty aroma with just a touch of caramel. Light bitterness, medium sweetness. Malt character nut-oriented. Good brown ale, chestnut flour not doing much, thankfully since I haven’t bren impressed with too many Italian chestnut beers.

Draught at the brewery
Dark amber colour. Robust Brown Ale, with excellent notes of roasted malts and nuts. Lean mouthfeel. --- Beer merged from original tick of Chestnut Brown on 10 May 2018 at 19:29 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.5.

Dark color, almost black. The aroma is light, but there is an excellent malt expression in the flavor, deep without being sweet, nutty, caramelly.
Very good.
