Saranac Nut Brown Ale

Not a great beer but a decent effort.

Color was much too light for my liking in terms of the style but on the upside it did come with a nice spotty head and some decent lacing.

Yeasty type aroma, average mouthfeel.

Bitterness is upfront and lasting and there is a lack of noticeable malts which serve to give the beer a metallic and sharp edge. I like a maltier base to my Brown Ales, and a little more sweetness. I miss the nuttiness that others speak of.

Drinkable despite the slightly odd features of the beer in general, and to be fair I quite enjoyed it.
