Growler. Pours a mostly clear mahogany brown body with a small fizzy off-white head that faded to a thin film. The nose is mostly dry toasty malt with a little nuttiness, but there is a light hint of cranberry that mixes pretty well with the nutty notes. The flavor is pretty ho-hum, on the sweeter side for a Brown Ale, presumably due to the brown sugar, but there is a pretty minimal influence from the cranberries. Maybe a little influence on the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, a touch clingy, with fizzy carbonation. Not bad, but not a favorite from these guys. Cranberry could be cool in a Brown Ale, but I think I’d leave out the brown sugar.
