Dark brown color with amber highlights, lotsa overflowing foam.
Aroma of dark roasted malt, expresso hints with a chocolaty background.
Taste is deep roasted malt with the same touches found in the aroma. Straight forward stuff with depth but little complexity. I mean, the flavors are there but haven't melded together. There is a pleasant hint of sweetness lingering in the aftertaste.
Texture is full.
Brown Ale, say what? Was the word Stout already taken over there in Yalobusha County? Whatever, they make it so they get the right to name it. The worst I can say about this brew is it's a foamer. Not every one spews forth when opened but enough have to notice. Same issue I've found with other products from this brewery. The best I can say is except for the 6.4% it's pretty close to a Guinness which is an opinion shared by the resident Guinness fan who knows whereof he speaks.

Like Larry Brown, it ain't too sweet or sentimental. Thanks Mr. Brown, firefighters everywhere, and Yalobusha.

Poured into a tasting glass.
A: Shoe polish brown with a tight off-white one finger head that dissipated fast. Decent lacing.
S: Chocolate malts and some cocoa nibs.
T: Follows nose with a light dose of chocolate and a smooth, robust finish. Lightly sweet. In essence, everything a Brown should be.
M: Low to medium with medium, dry carbonation.
O: A decent Brown ale; one I'd like to consume again. Glad they introduced this one to the fold. And named after one of my favorite authors, too.
