Downtown Honeybrown
The Bobcat Café & Brewery

Poured into a pint glass at the brewpub, the appearance was a moderately dark brown color with a sly transparency to it. Bar pour’s kind of slim white head dissipates immediately. No lacing. The aroma starts with roasty sweet nutty to caramel and then some nutty malts. Sly grassy, semi-dirty/earthiness, mostly acceptable. The flavor leans nutty sweet, nice roasty level, acceptable bitter grassy happiness to balance. Sly sweet nutty aftertaste and finish. On the palate, this was a decent sessionably smooth Brown ale deep with a rich sly maltiness laying down on my tongue appropriately. Carbonation seems to ride nice and low. Overall, nice English styled brown ale that I would have again.

Classic dark copper color as an American Brown should have. Cream colored head retained itself well throughout the sample and the ring laced well too. Pleasant aromas of malt but not very deep. Flavors are of well balanced malt and hops with a nutty quality and a little caramel in the malts as it warms. Medium to light carbonation is a little soft for this beer in my opinion but does lend itself to being very drinkable and refreshing if not outstanding.
