Gruut Brown is our cuvee with a pleasant, smooth beginning and a never experienced, persistent aftertaste coming from a mixture of nuts. Recently we have adjusted our Gruut brown so now it is completely gluten free.

Tasting set on draft at the brewery. Brown, made with nuts, pours a beautiful amber brown with a buttery nutty aroma. The taste is sweet butterscotch diacetyl which I am not sure if they were aiming for but for me it is a miss.

Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. Pours hazy ruby amber with small off-white head. Clear aroma of caramel malt and fruit, with notes of hops and cough drop. Sweet flavour of caramel malt and fruit - really sweet for the style - with some bitter notes of hops. Hints of yeast. Sweetish, fruity and estery aftertaste. Nice, although not top-notch.
