The Duck-Rabbit Brown Ale

Brewed by The Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery
Style: Brown Ale
Farmville, North Carolina USA

Serve in Dimpled mug

On cask at Atlanta Cask Fest 2012. Pours a medium brown with a white head. Nose is some bready malts, some earthy, grassy hops with citrus twinges, and some tobacco. Flavor is similar with tobacco, hops, and bready malts dominating this one. Finishes somewhat dry for this medium-bodied brown ale.

12oz bottle in a pint glass. Not much to say here, a good but unremarkable American brown ale. Pours medium brown and the roasted flavor is prominent as expected.

From the 12oz bottle purchased at The BeerHive in Pittsburgh. Immediate tastes of bitterness and an arid mouth feel along with a low gravity and density leave a few things to be desired. Ho hum, this is left as a mildly disappointing review. I expected more from a brewer who has some top-notch beers in their cellar.

Sweet roasted malt, nutty aroma. A bit dull smelling. Very nutty, roasted malt, some coffee especially on the back end. Pretty straightforward but good. Thanks ned1313.

12 oz. bottle as a trade bonus. Pours a clear copper with a small off-white head that lasts and leaves some lace. Aroma of nuts, chocolate, toasted malts, leaves, and a little spice. Flavor of earth, toffee, toasted malts, leaves, and wood. Light-medium bodied, with modest carbonation and a toasty, earthy mouthfeel. Nice brown ale.

Brown colour with a beige head. Aroma is caramel. ,alt, hop, fruit. Flavour is caramel, malt, hop, fruit. Medium body. Easy drinkable OK beer.

The aroma is earthy, nutty, chocolate. The appearance is brown, translucent, red hue, cream colored head. The flavor is chocolate, nuts, brown sugar, sweeter than the aroma. The finish is a pine and citrus hop bitterness. Medium in body, maybe slighty thicker than medium, creamy mouthfeel. Solid Brown Ale.

Growler pours medium brown with a thick tan head Aromas are malty, sweet, vanilla, a bit of sourness. Taste is sweet malt, some smokiness, a little hoppy and dry on the finish. Not a real complex beer, but ok for a brown A decent brown ale for fall.
