100% Wisconsin malt of six different varieties impart the natural toasted color to the bottle conditioned unfiltered ale. Clean hazelnut notes result from these carefully chosen barley malts. Hops from Slovenia, Bavaria and the Pacific Northwest give Fat Squirrel its backbone.

Much better than most American brown ales. Light. Nutty. Bit of hops. A nice version of the beer. And a rare treat for me to have New Glarus.

12 oz bottle. Nice brown color with a good lacing white head. Malty aroma. Very nutty flavor. A tad thinner than I would like in a brown but a really enjoyable session type beer.

Overall this a great Nut brown ale. Smooth and inviting with a high drinkability quotient. I;ll once again search this one out when I go back to WI.

At first I wasn’t a fan but then this nut brown ale grew on me. Very nutty flavor but not overpowering and I enjoy it greatly. I’ve had both bottle and on tap and I don’t know if it’s the atmosphere but I prefer it on Tap. (not to mention it’s only $1 a frosty mug at my local watering hole)

Very faint aroma, just a hint of sweetness to it. Pours a dark amber, with just a ring of foam. Nice creamy mouthfeel, hints of nuts, coffee, and a touch of caramel in the flavor. Long finish, with a touch of bitterness to balance. Not a bad beer for one coming from one of my least favorite styles.

(bottle) Pours a light brown with an off-white head that didn’t develop until after the beer sat a bit. Aroma was somewhat weak, but what was there was caramel, with a hint of hazelnut, and some toasted smell too. Taste is caramel initially, slight fruit, with a toasty, nutty finish. Medium body, not too bad.

[Bottle] Pours reddish-brown with a thin cream head. Aroma is nutty, toasty, malty. Not too sweet. Taste is nice, but not great. Fairly typical malt and nut taste. Medium-thin mouthfeel. Pretty nice toasted finish. Fairly smooth. Solid, but doesn’t set itself apart.
