I got this bottle in a trade with Wasatch. Thanks John!
It pours from 12oz bottle a clear deep amber with a nice 2 finger head of foam and lots of lacing.
The smell is malty, nutty, and has some citrus hops there as well.
The taste on first sip and I immediately notice the pecan influence. Nice. After another sip or 2, I get a good caramel malt backbone that works quite well with the nuttiness and I'm surprised at how good a mouthfeel this has...quite silky. It finishes with that citrus hop flavour that I noted in the smell. This is a very nice Brown Ale indeed and the foam does a pretty good job sticking around for the entire session.
Bottom line: This is a well crafted example of the style and I really like how the pecan interacts with the other flavours. A very good session beer to boot!

Bottle: Hazy brown with a thin beige head. Caramel, pepper scent. Taste is caramel malt, a little chocolate....followed by a decent chhile pepper burn. Not bad as a pepper beer, but needs a bit more balance.....any pecan notes are buried by yhe heat.

Bottle: Hazy brown with orange bcklights, thin beige head. Caramel, cola, pecan aroma. Flavour is mild, toasted pecans, toasted grain malt.....very smooth. Not too sweet....light, of course, but a good deal of flavour to it. Really enjoyable.
