Schlafly House Brown Ale

Schlafly House Brown Ale is an American Brown Ale, 5.6% ABV, packaged on 08/17/16, opened on 11/6/16. Bottle provided for review.

The beer pours with a lovely dark chocolate brown color, and a light brown head with excellent retention. A pleasant aroma of sweet chocolate and roasted nuts; nothing too complex on the nose, but nothing too complex was expected. The taste has a similar start with a good bit of chocolate malt and sweet toasted nuts. A nice bit of hop bitterness and mild pine flavor is added to that, before heading to a dry, and slightly chalky, bakers chocolate finish.

A highly enjoyable beer for Autumn.
