Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale
With such high ratings on Beer Advocate, I had very high expectations before drinking this brown ale. It is a beautiful clear brown color with a tan, creamy head. A faint sweet smell. The taste is good. Carmel malts up front and finishes with a dry and the slightest bitter after taste. Mouthfeel is good too. Not watery like Newcastle. Very mild, very smooth and extremely easy to drink. It is good beer, but I do not think it is outstanding by any means. Just a little weak on flavor.
