Ithaca Nut Brown

The Beer Stats:
  • Beer Name: Ithaca Nut Brown
  • Brewery: Ithaca Brewing Company (New York)
  • Style: English Brown Ale
  • ABV: 5.4%
  • IBU: 
  • Pour Color: Dark brown but lets a little light through.




      A brown ale always goes well with a brown mustache. The Face poured this one and you couldn't quite see through it. A nice fluffy head came up quick and left just as quickly. The scent off the top is a nice roasted caramel or toffee. The flavor is a nice raisin at first. Then you notice a nice roasted walnut taste. Finally a nice roasted flavor at the finish. All and all a really good beer that drinks much darker then most brown ales. 
      This is a sweet bitter beer that rounds out your average meals. Pair it with grilled meats, or a nice pizza, and it don't get better. Got a day planned round the grill? Bring some nut brown and everyone will thank you.
