Flossmoor Station Pullman Brown

Brewed by Flossmoor Station Restaurant & Brewery
Style: Brown Ale
Flossmoor, Illinois USA

Got to give them props on this brown ale. It was creamy, rich, smooth, and toasty. It had great complexity from its abundance of malt backbone, to its perfectly balanced backend and slight hop bitterness. Nicely done. Very drinkable.

Had this beer at GABF on 10/2/1999. Aroma is light with just a hit of malt. Color is deep brown with light carbonation and thin head. Taste is very mild with low malt character and an alcohol feel. Not a very good Brown.

Imperial nut brown! Lovely mahogany hue, full bodied, chewy yet slippery mouthfeel. Roasty taste with a lingering hop finish with plenty of nut including almond. Seemed 7+% alcohol, medicinal taste but not in an off putting way. Faint coffee.Below average carbonation. This is by far the best microbrew-pub reastauant brews I’ve had and food and service was excellent. Highly recommended.

On tap at Flossmoor, 9/22/07. Deep mahogany brown in color with nice dense tan foam that has phenomenal retention and lacing. Aroma is surprisingly hoppy with lots of malt hiding beneath. Initial flavor is jam packed with lots of rich maltiness and very nice hoppiness, the bummer is as the pint goes down, the beer loses more and more character. Complex at first and then very pedestrian.

Draft at the brewpub. Dark brownish black in color with a big cream head. Slightly sour, nutty aroma with hints of the malt and a bit of wood. Flavor profile pretty much followed the aroma to a "T". Pretty good stuff.

On tap at the brew-pub. Very dark pour. It’s not really brown at all. Nice roasty malty aroma with some hops noticeable. Roasty and bready flavor with plenty of hop bitterness. The molasses was also noticeable and meshed well. Very smooth, drinkable beer. If I could get there on a regular basis, I would be drinking this one pretty regularly. Probably the best brown ale I’ve had to date.

On tap at the brewpub. Dark brown in colour with a medium sized head. Thsi might be a bit off. Feels somewhat oxidized. Sweet and malty and not at all balanced.
