Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale
Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz. bottle into a pint glass. Appearance: It builds a thick and foamy head with a creamy tan color over a dark reddish brown body. The body has good clarity and some visible carbonation. The head has very good retention, lasting until the last sip, and it leaves light tan lacing on the glass. Smell: The aroma has a strong malty character with notes of mixed nuts and mild hops. Taste/Mouth feel: It has a malty, sweet bread character that's doughy and nutty. The presence of hops is mild and only noticeable towards the finish. Its carbonation is mild and the body is about medium making the texture smooth and creamy. Notes: This is a very enjoyable brown ale.
