Lacking the brawny brashness, but not the steely metallic pungency, of its ‘burly’ descriptive, this coarsely phenol brown ale gets mired in sour nuttiness. Grain-burnt peanut-shelled walnut char coats resinous hop astringency, overwhelming chalky mocha malting. Bitter rough-edged nutty finish falters.

Generous perfumed hop spicing embeds nutty pinewood bitterness and dried fig-date souring of medium-bodied amber-browned ale. Grain-roasted macadamia, hazelnut, and peanut oil nuances suffice, bringing further depth to brown-sugared raw-honeyed mocha malting.

Inviting thin-headed brown-hazed ‘smooth dark ale’ brings expressive nuttiness to roasted caramel alleviation. Oily hop-charred peanut-shelled walnut bittering counters meandering macadamia-hazelnut sweetness above cocoa-dried mocha malting. Ashy peat recess and metallic twinge obstruct nebulous vanilla-sarsaparilla spell.

Aromatic Southeast Asian pandan leaf uplifts sensuous spice-hopped cocoa and chocolate nibs illusions as well as candied hazelnut-pecan-almond roast. A bit phenol by timid cardboard-y palm sugar finish, but delicate gingerbread nuance and botanical heather lilt tingle backend nicely.

Terrific bottle-conditioned autumnal Belgian knockoff works oaken cherry aromatics into sour raisin-prune-plum ripeness and maple-sapped molasses sweetness, leaving funky candi-sugared Belgian yeast in its wake. Boozy alcohol whir picks up strength as tertiary hard cider, pumpkin pie crusting, and buttered pecan illusions surmount dark-spiced hop sharpness.

Ambiguous ‘Dusseldorf- style brown ale’ places musty raw-honeyed rye malting above dry black tea and orange pekoe bittering. Harsh nut-grained slipstream loses caramelized whir in a hurry. Indistinct medium-full-bodied altbier derivative just never catches fire.

Nicking aggressive roasted nut coarseness from brewers’ similarly-styled Bolita brand, dense hop-enriched malt-smoked ‘Oatmeal Rye India-Style Brown Ale’ retains creamy chocolate-y cocoa bean richness above ashen cedar tone to murky pine-sapped rye bottom. Dry port, burgundy, and fig illusions waver through sharp nuttiness.

Viscous 12th anniversary ale utilizes one dozen hops and malts to anchor concealed 12% alcohol luster. Syrupy sweet brown chocolate malting and maple-sapped molasses-dipped toffee fudging receive cinnamon-toasted hop-spiced raisin-prune souring. Oaken vanilla subsidy pervades lilting bourbon, barleywine, cherry wine, and dark rum warmth. Boozy brown ale makes superb dessert treat.

Up-front hazelnut-walnut exertion deepens dry coffee bean theme, elevating highly carbonated English-styled Brown Ale brewed in memorial to sales manager. Bitter wood tones build as minor berry sourness creeps through barley-roasted mocha-chocolate thicket. Fig-dried sour grape esters counter brown sugared finish, picking up muted caramel, vanilla, and molasses stickiness skirting Nut Brown and porter labeling.

Fleshy eggshell-headed, clear-bronzed medium body captures chocolate-milked sugar maple theme. Blackstrap molasses sap, sweet honey drippings and temporal caramel nuttiness embittered by charred oak bottom.

Cool looking moose-with-barrel graphics on label may be only distinctive character of this simple ale. Light chocolate souring and muted hop bitterness soften palate to lightweight mocha malt finish. Nevertheless, rednecks and couch potatoes will like its casual splendor.

Rambunctious raspberry-pureed black cherry entry settles to smoked malt restraint with ashy mocha subsidy for robust dessert brew. Modestly tart juicy fruit concentration coats organic grain crispness and wispy almond-cola-macadamia nuttiness for rewarding barley-roasted berry-juiced finish as lacey crystals hug glass.
