Samuel Smiths Nut Brown Ale

Brewed by Samuel Smith
Style: Brown Ale
Tadcaster, England

A- Pours a deep reddish hue with a foamy eggshell colored head that retains well and leaves behind some lacing. S- Very pungent, deep earthy smells of nuts and wheat come to the forefront of the odor. T- Completely nutty taste with a dash of roasted malts. Very smooth all the way through. Taste lingers beautifully on the palate for a while. M- Smooth consistency at first leading to a burst of carbonation at the end. Thin sweet film coats the inside of the mouth leaving behind wonderful flavors. D- This beer is very drinkable. Easy to enjoy a pint just about anytime.

bottle flavor is not complex but very enjoyable lays on the palate very nicely. I may have served slightly too cold. As with the other poster I too am a big fan of the oatmeal stout. I did not figure that it would match that am not disappointed in the least Samuel Smith makes a great product, short head gives is a little lower mark.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with slight white head. Aroma is malt and nutty. Clean crisp malt flavor with slight nutty after taste. Good brown ale.

i’m a huge fan of sam smith’s oatmeal stout, so i had high expectations for the nut brown ale. i was slightly disappointed -- but only slightly. it was very mild and nutty tasting, clean and drinkable.

Bottle. Really nice "Brown Ale". I’ve not drank alot of this style but this one was good. Great mild, malty flavor. Just a touch of hops. Overall, I highly recommend this one.

Amber color with a strong white head. Gets good lacing. Aroma is mostly alcohol by the end. Nutty malty flavor with very little hops, if any. Very interesting, and definitely worth another drink.

Not sure about the ‘well water’ or ‘Yorkshire squares’. Does taste different. Drank from an ice cold bottle though i bet it would better at room temperature. Good dark amber colour. some nuttiness but not as much as advertised (cf. Michael jackson’s beer companion). goes down pretty sweet. Next to no hops or head, though tastes a bit stale ...or is that soap? Maybe it’s the seaweed finings. 5% alcohol gives you some value for your buck. and its taste is not as simple as it seems. this is my 100th beer rated - wahooo!

Pour was dark brown with light tan head. Aroma of malt and nuts. Flavor was a little mild but real smooth. Nice brew but nothing special. Might buy again.
