Hazelnut Brown Ale
Mr Brownstone, crafted for your pleasure as the choice Autumnal tipple, is a medium-bodied Hazelnut Brown Ale whose enticing qualities emulate those of his sinister namesake. Mr Brownstone has a hazelnutty vanilla aroma with a roasted cocoa bean and biscuit malt backbone; a balanced hop bitterness; and velvety smooth, chocolatey finish.

On tap at Woodstock. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Tons of hazelnut on the nose. Flavour has hazelnut and powdered hot chocolate. Gimmicky, barely palatable beer.

0,5l from tap at MOJO Market, Sea Point, Cape Town. Almost black color, small tan head. Smells strong hazelnuts, spices, toffee, light vanilla. Nice to very nice smell. Full body, soft carbonation. Tastes nutty, hazelnuts, toffee, earthy, vanilla. Finishes lightly roasty bitter with notes of hazelnuts, toffee and spices. Pretty good one, a tad too pastry, but gets better when warm.
