330ml bottle. Almost opaque, darkest brown colour with small, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Weak, slightly toasty and nutty, malty aroma, grassy hoppy overtones, a touch of celery. Taste is grassy, bitter hoppy and toasty, dark malty, minimally nutty, a touch of liquorice, toasted nuts, celery, a minimally metallic touch as well; minimally chalky finish on top. Watery texture, dry, minimally repellent palate, medium, slightly prickly carbonation. OK nuttiness, definitiely too metallic, and since Brown Ale already isn't exactly my favourite style - not really tempting.
