COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Southern Pecan Nut Brown Ale is the first beer in the world, to our knowledge, made with whole roasted pecans. The pecans are used just like grain and provide a nutty characteristic and a delightful depth to the flavor profile. This beer is very lightly hopped to allow the malty, caramel, and nutty flavors shine through. The color is dark mahogany. Southern Pecan won a Bronze Medal in the 2006 World Beer Cup in the Specialty Beer category.

Alengrin (11013) - Gent, BELGIUM - MAR 25, 2023
UPDATED: MAR 25, 2023 American style brown ale with roasted pecan nuts by Lazy Magnolia, the leading craft brewery in the state of Mississippi. I cannot thank Lauren and Morgan enough for this precious 'state tick'... Thick and frothy, membrane-lacing, pale greyish white, regularly shaped, very stable head on a clear caramel brown beer with ruddy hue. Aroma of old caramel candy, dust, ground pecan nuts, moist toasted bread, hints of old dried orange peel, medlar, nougat, rusty iron, dried apricot, Ersatz chocolate, raw salsify, muesli. Sweetish onset with underlying minerality in spite of relatively soft carbonation, a slight metallic note too (rusty iron again), along with dried medlar and faint blackberry aspects; softly tingling carb, smooth and lightly oily, lean body. Nuttiness rules the middle, roasted pecan indeed with mild and soft bittersweetishness over a hard-caramelly core, very smooth and light-bodied, working towards a nutty-woody, toasty finish where restrained caramel sweetishness continues and a dash of leafy hops provide extra bitterness - avoiding 'classic' American hop bitterness, oddly, so that the ending feels like an English northern brown ale with toasted nuts rather than a 'true' American brown ale. Brown ale it is, in any case, a genre one does not see appear too often anymore - so this in itself is very welcoming to me; Lazy Magnolia clearly understood how toasted pecan nuts match the overall flavour profile of a classic brown ale, British or American. The metallic aspect could be a bit less and may likely annoy some consumers, but the overall flavour balance is right here, making for an easy drinker in a style totally different from the dominant IPA and APA idiom one constantly encounters these days in craft-minded countries. Solid enough and as said, a valuable state tick for me. Cheers guys!

jjsint (7702) - Leicester, Leicestershire, ENGLAND - MAR 12, 2023
UPDATED: MAR 12, 2023 12oz bottle from Total Wine & More, St Petersburg, FL. reddish brown and clear with a tiny ring of off-white head. Looks very thin. Nutty aroma, slightly vinous, some honey. Sweet - way to sweet - taste, lots of pecan, chocolate malt. Turns slightly sour in the finish with berry notes adding to the aftertaste. Medium to heavy carbonation add zest to the thin body. It’s okay.

coasternut (1893) - VANCOUVER, Washington, USA - MAR 5, 2023
UPDATED: MAR 5, 2023 This beer has an aroma of roasted or slight BBQ. The taste is malt and pecans and pours a reddish-brown color with a small head that goes away quickly. This has a really good taste of pecans, caramel and chocolate. A medium to light watery body. For this type of beer, a heavier body would be better I believe. This is not exactly what I was expecting from this beer.

pdog555 (1977) - Connecticut, USA - JAN 3, 2023
UPDATED: JAN 3, 2023 Pours a clear reddish-amber, with a frothy creme-colored head. Aroma of vanilla, light malt, and spice. Taste has chocolate, caramel, some malty sweetness. Palate has nutty note that lingers, sweet mouth note that coats the tongue. Not bad.

phillybass (194) - San Francisco, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 18, 2022
UPDATED: MAY 18, 2022 Eh. Just not worth it. Barely any flavor. At least it’s refreshing without bad aftertaste.

UPDATED: APR 23, 2022 Pours clear dark amber with a thin, light tan head. Aroma is pecan, roast and candy sugar. Taste is pecan and candy sugar, moving to roast. Finish is the same as the taste.
