Draft, Baja Bean, Staunton VA. Medium brown color with tan head. Nose of lightly toasted malt, caramel and brown sugar, peanuts, and some faint spiciness. Flavor is malt-forward, though with enough hops to balance out the sweetness. Some spices come through in the finish-- pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, etc. Not really my thing, but well made, and an easy drinker, and I’ll always support the Smutty.

Aug 16, 2008 Pours more of a lighter beige than a true brown ale, with a small white cap. Not too much in the nose, some typical earthy british aroma hops, some biscuity malt. More of the same on the palate with a slightly thin body, finishing vaguely chocolatey. Not my cup of tea.
