A surprise package at the Douglasville Taco Mac, Douglasville, GA, USA.
Pour appears to be a brown affair with some reddish highlights and a white cap. Head fades quickly and lace is minimal.
This was described to me as a Winter Ale, is in the BA db as I type as a Schwarzbier, and frankly looks and drank like neither!
In essence there are some fairly significant chocolate malts which fade to give a malt dominated, mild beer with a tiny, tiny hop kick in the finish. Basically it sits somewhere between an American and an English Brown Ale without any frills. Simple, drinkable and straightforward I enjoyed the one pint I had but felt that was just about all I needed to get the feel of this.
Smooth in the mouth and drinkable, it was instantly forgettable and lacked much presence.
