Pours a dark nutty chestnut brown, sharp clarity in the light. Long lasting surface foam, unbroken for the duration of the glass. Delicate lace all around the edges of the glass.
Aroma is mild, light toasted malt, somewhat nutty, grain husks.
Taste is similar, nutty and malt forward, though with an astringent twang.
Fairly substantial in body, the light astringency is odd, mild dry bitterness.
Overall it's pretty good, though not my favorite from Urban Chestnut.

People are missing the boat on this beer. It is a well-done German-style brew. It's malty and tasty with a light bitterness. An easy drinking brew for the hot summer months.

Dark brown in color with a quarter inch of beige resting on top. Brussels lacing and brilliant clarity are observed. Aroma of light malt and marzipan. The flavor is plenty of light malt and marzipan. The mouth is light and smooth.

Pours an effervescent caramel/orange with 3+ fingers of fluffy, cream colored head. Great lacing & head retention, handsome beer!
S: Woody hops, a little caramel
T: Biscuitty malt, dryness, a little woody & grassy hops & dryness up front. Much dryness as this warms, leafy & woody hops, plus bready sweetness as this warms. Finishes dry, grassy with faint pear & astringent notes
MF: Light/medium bodied, firm carbonation , okay balance
Drinks okay, was hoping for better, passable, but too dry
