Tröegs Rugged Trail Ale is a unique rendition of a classic English Brown. It has a deep bronze color, rocky head, and prominent Fuggle hop aroma. Toasted amber and Chocolate malts impart a "Nutty" richness and creamy velvet texture.

Bottle. Deep brown color, little head, and not much on the nose. Medium body. Subdued toasted malt flavor and just a hint of sweetness. Surprisingly bitter for a Nut Brown, which is ok with me.

Medium brown with a rich roasted malt aroma. Nicely rounded, smooth and somewhat warming. Flavors were more roasted malt and bittersweet chocolate. The nuttiness could have been emphasized more. Hop flavors took control at the end but overall pretty good, bold with a touch of sweetness.

This beer offered a beautiful pour showing an almost dark amber/brown with a good head. The aroma is earthy with a roasted appeal. The flavor offers a lot of nuttiness but backed by a smooth maltiness allowing each to blend and compliment the other. Definately one of the best brown ales that I enjoy. A sure bet for a good beer to try.

Faint dusty malty nose, starts out smooth, somewhat spicy and earthy, but is thin and not exciting. Just average.

Bottle. Reddish brown color with quickly fading head. Still, lots of aroma, like burnt nuts. Unimpressive at first, but flavors developed as my hand warmed it up, so probably just served too cold.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a deep reddish brown color with a light tan head. Nice nutty aroma along with some malt, both of which also come through in the taste. Creamy mouthfeel. Very enjoyable.
