Black Forest Brau Keller Brown Ale

Pours a deep reddish brown with a quite thin tan head (at least from the growler, which tends to flatten beers a bit so it may be thicker from the tap). A hint of barley mixes with a hint of malt in the nose. Bitter overall taste with alcohol coming out a little strong (odd if it is really 5% like the description says), but lacking in much else.

Thin, watery dark amber color. Sweet nutty nose, but barely a hint of malt in the mouth. Light bodied and nearly tasteless, but hints of hops in the finish.
