The brown ale was the third of the original bottles my friend Pete gave me a while back. The Black Double IPA was quite good while the Dark Sour Wheat was, well, slightly bizarre (and probably a result of infection.)
Pretty great nose on this actually. Malty with a decent amount of caramel. Unfortunately, the smell was a bit more impressive than the flavors. A little bready, a small bit of tanginess and a few raisin and plum notes initially. Very little caramel flavor compared to the nose. The other slight oddity was that Pete called it a nut brown and, well, it really wasn't. Sorry Pete! Still, it was way better than the Abita I drank the other day so Pete's better than some production breweries at least.
