Pours an amber brown color with a beige fizzed lacing for a head. Aroma is nutty malty with woody overtones. Flavor is much like the name-nut browny with malt presence. Nothing special here. Average at best.

Nice color and aroma. Not a great addition to the nut brown category though. Other great beers like Samuel Smith’s blows Troegs out of the water. Not bad on draught though if ou can find it.

Can not believe I did not rate this yet. Brown, creamy, nutty. Typical brown ale here.

Considerably dark brown color presented, with a decent layer of toast-colored foam on top. Inviting nose of maple wood, mesquite, brown sugar and real maple syrup. However, there are also some light fuesal notes present, and a musty cereal grain presence that’s hard to ignore. Somewhat chewy on the palate, that’s my initial thought, lightly frothy, with some cinnamon toast and maple flavors, though fairly light. Nothing astounding or rich, rather a plastic and paper blandness throughout, with little pockets of maple and brown sugar flavor. Even approaches a little robustness and chewiness at times, only to let you down quickly with a starchy blandness which dominates the finish. Overall this one keeps saying to me: "middle of the road"

Brown-amberish brew, foamy tan head. Very nutty aroma with notes of caramel. Kind of watery roasted nut flavor with a hint of pear. Very light bodied.
