Growler from Frank.
My portion was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a dark brown color with a level foamy white head. Mild stringy lace.
The aroma had some roasty malts, good dose of nuts, some caramel/toffee maltiness, light coffee, and a little bit of dark chocolate. Some leafy hops at the very end - some light bitterness.
The flavor leaned into the roast initially and then created a nice delicate sweet to roasty aftertaste. Smooth sweet and roasty finish.
The feel was about medium bodied with a decent sessionability about it. Good carbonation. ABV felt fine.
Overall, damn good brown ale that I would love to have again.

Growler share with Doug and Henry. Thanks Frank.
Poured into a mug, the appearance was a dark amber almost brown color with a finger’s worth of white to off white foamy head. Light stringy lace.
The aroma had some toast, milk chocolate, woody/earthy hops and some light espresso sweet to bitter nibs at the end.
The flavor took all of the previously mentioned aromas and added in a touch of vanilla. Nice gentle aftertaste of the espresso; same in the finish.
The feel was about medium bodied with a decent sessionability about it. Somewhat creamy along my tongue. Roastiness doesn’t grip as much. Carbonation felt fine and the ABV felt good.
Overall, really nice coffee brown ale that brought the goods!

Can, thanks Wolff. A bit hazy golden with a medium white head. Aroma of hops, citrus, light tropical fruit and some malt. Similar taste. The body was medium as was the bitterness. Fresh and easy to drink.
