Oskar Blues Leroy

"One Nut Brown Ale" at the restaurant. I’m not a big fan of brown ales. They need to grow up and decide to be porters or stouts. That said, this is a well-brewed example of the style. It was creamy, with toffee, brown sugar and a bit of hop to it.

Draught @ Oskar Blues. Lots of character for a brown. Ruby brown color. Long lasting foam. Creamy texture and very mouth filling. Roast and toast character with hints of toffee, fruits and brown sugar, which leads into a dry, hoppy finish. Fairly nice nose as well. It’s a high quality, well made brown.

Pours a slightly hazy amber brown color with a white head. Aroma is roasty, slightly nutty, and a hint of hops. Flavor is malty, nutty, roasty, and a bitter hoppy finish.

Poured a reddish amber color with a small, light tan head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malts, nuts, some roast, and a bit of smoke as well. Taste of sweet toffee, caramel, nuts, chocolate, and light roasted malts as well.

well its just not my type of beer. brown like a shot of whiskey. no hop flavor, no real malt base. kinda like a washed out rye. i guess i could dream something up on my tastebuds but i doubt it would be coming from the beer.
