Review - Smuttynose Brewing Company's Old Brown Dog Ale
"Old Brown Dog has been cited as a classic example of the "American Brown Ale" style of beer. Compared to a typical English Brown Ale, Old Brown Dog is fuller-bodied and more strongly hopped." -- Smuttynose Brewing Co.
This brown ale pours a dark amber color with a huge, frothy off-white head. Excellent lacing. Aroma's of moderate nutty malts and allspice. Alcohol scent is present. Initial taste is both acidic and bitter, with a light bitter finish. Light on the mouth with an oily finish. Tastes very nutty, like a Nutty Buddy candy bar.
