This is their regular brown ale that seemed to come across as an American brown ale to me a bit less hoppy.
Here's my thoughts: The appearance was a dark brown color towards the center with just a smidgeon of white foamy head. That dissipated to barely leave any lace.
The aroma had some coffee, brown sugar, milk chocolate, and a touch of dark chocolate.
The flavor was moderately sweet meshing all of the prior mentioned aromas together wonderfully. Me, I wasn't bothered by the fact that there was less hops in it than what I normally find in American Brown ales. There was a noticeable aftertaste of some coffee and milk chocolate.
The mouthfeel was between light and medium bodied with a good sessionability about it. Carbonation did feel fine. Nice finish of the coffee and milk chocolate.
Overall, it's a nice brown ale, but like I said earlier in this review, I can tell it's an American brown ale, but it's one with less hops (or barely any hops).
