Full Sail Nut Brown Ale

Bomber poured a clear dark reddish brown with a lasting tan head. Aromas of cocoa, carmel, nuts and toasted malt. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of carmel, cocoa, toasted malt and light nuttiness with a smooth malty finish.

Bottle. Head is initially small, frothy, light brown, mostly diminishing. Body is dark brown. Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (caramel, roasted nuts/grain), lightly to moderately hoppy (resin). Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly to moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly to moderately acidic, moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Not that enticing in the aroma department for me, but that’s partly because it relies a bit too much on green/American hops. The flavor balance is ok for quaffing if you can handle the acidity level, which I’m not fond of. Overall not bad, but definitely west coast style and thus not my cup of tea.

Brown with small brown head. Roasty nose with nut and caramel nose. Flavor was more nutty, with hints of carmalized sugar. Nice and malty with a touch of sour towards the finish.

Darker reddish brown, moderate head with decent lacing and retention. Aroma is caramel, nut, toast, some chocolate and light hops. Medium bodied, moderate to high carbonation. Decent, nothing special.

Dark ruby-red with a tan head. Has a weighted body, but it’s relatively easy to drink. Nice balance between dark, sharp roast and sweet, grainy-peaty malt flavors. Some lactic-like sourness and a pinch of bitterness rounds things out well. Subtle flavors and aromas of nuts, caramel, coffee and light spices. Not too shabby, especially for a typically boring style.

Bottle. Poured mahogany brown whith thin tan head. Chocolate, roast and caramel aroma. Toasted caramel with a bit of espresso flavour. Medium bodied. Lasting bitter coffee and roast finish

Bottle. Caramel/mahogony beer with a light tan head. Caramel, light roast, light coffee and light chocolate aroma. Caramel flavor with light coffee and light fruit. Medium bodied. Lingering caramel and light roast.

22oz bottle. Poured deep brown with a slight reddish hue, capped with a moderate sized tan head. Aroma is sweet malt with nuts (almond), cocoa and toffee. Flavor is nutty, with some chocolate and some vegetal character. Medium body. (bottle from 5000 - Thanks Andre!)
