Draft at the brewpub. Pours clear brown with crimson hues and medium beige head. Aroma is hoppy/hint of nuts, medium carbonation, and thin small bubble herbal hops. Taste is herbal hops and some nuts. Not an English variety of brown ale, very hop forward. Hop heads might like this, but needs more balance in the taste for me.
