Wild Goose Nut Brown Ale

A nut-brown beer - wonder where I got that from, with a thin light brown head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of nuts, while the flavor has notes of malt, caramel, and nuts as well as hints of nutmeg.

clear brown, thin beige head, lots of lace, big sweet nutty malt aroma with a nice amout of carmel and yeasty character plus a bit of strange hops, slightly oxidized chocolate malt flavor, nice toasted character, good and yeasty like fresh bread, very good flavor that might be improved in a fresher sample,

Crystal clear deep red-brown body topped by small beige head. Aroma is fairly sweet, caramel, toffee, nutty. Taste is medium sweet, nutty, caramel, some roasty, light chocolate. Finish is bittersweet. Watery light-medium body.

Crystal clear, mahogany ale with a small, creamy, well-tanned head. Heavy butterscotch and toffee in the aroma. Vanilla and chocolate as well. Malt bliss! Very well-balanced and nutty with small, thin notes of chocolate, coffee and tangy hops in the flavor. A bit woodsy. Medium-bodied with a silky mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Damn nice brew!

A little bit thin, but otherwise a pleasant sessionable ale. Clean brown with orange highlights and a pale tan head, it’s got a mild, sweet malt aroma accented by blanched hazelnuts. The sweet malt continues in the flavor with a subdued nutty bitterness and a soft chocolate taste. Very smooth sweet finish with a touch of earthy hops at the very end.
