Full Sail Nut Brown Ale

Appearance: Pours a clearish, dark brown body with a small, thin, ivory-colored head. Smell: Malty, chocolatey nose with slightly lesser notes of caramel and roasted nut husks. Taste: Dry, nutty flavor with a bit of chocolate and a light caramel sweetness. Mild spicy hops and bitterness. Nuts all the while. Obligatory nutty, relatively smooth finish with a final taste of chocolate. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: A fine, respectable brown ale. Better than most, even!

Pours deep brown, brilliantly clear, large, lasting, off-white head. Aroma is rich roasty malt. More rich roasted malts dance on the tongue. Body is medium. No bitterness or hops detected which is fine. Nicely crafted.

Bottle... Clear, dark brown ale with a large, frothy, khaki head. Small, creamy, everlasting retention. When held up to light, copper/ruby hues are revealed. Rich, hearty aroma provides chocolate, tropical nuts and a hint of vanilla. Full-bodied with a whole-milk mouthfeel and lazy carbonation. Nutty, malty, chocolaty flavor with a whisper of coffee. Medium sweetness, modest bitterness and light acidity. Finishes well-roasted, balanced and lightly tangy.

Deep dark mahogany color with a thin light-brown head. Aroma is coffee and roasty grains, a touch of chocolate. Flavor is like starbuck’s coffee beans - a bit astringent from the over roasting. This beer is also a touch nutty, and not sweet at all. Finish is a bit of lingering dry astringent-ness...

Bomber bought at the Utah State Store. Pours a dark brown body with a thick and creamy beige head. The aroma is mostly coffee and rich malts. The taste was full of caramel, roasted malt, some sweet coffee and fruit, a touch of tobacco and some nutty flavors. Very nice. Easy to drink and smooth as hell, yet flavorful.
