4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
A good roast in the aroma. This eliminates the bitterness left by the IPA I just had quite nicely. Roasty, creamy and not nutty to me, I like this one a lot. In fact, for me this is one of the best browns that I’ve had!

Roasted nutty malts but a weird aftertaste that leaves a bitterness in the mouth. A bit heavy on the carbonation for my liking. Just about average, overall.
