Interestingly gruff American brown ale maintains caramel-sugared cocoa-dusted brown chocolate malting overriding dry-roasted walnut, cashew, Brazil nut, cola nut, nutmeat, and coffee nut coarseness. Fizzy wood-spiced hop char contrasts syrupy molasses richness and soda-like sassafras splash. Tertiary peat, tobacco, cigar ash, pine comb, and dark floral illusions spread across back of the tongue. Ample alcohol afterburner adds anodyne astringency.
