Label Reads: A Brown Ale with lots of malt flavour. Perfectly balanced malt with a hint of hops delivers character and flavour. Mahogany colour, pleasant aroma, mild carbonation leads to a robust taste in a medium bodied beer. Our Nut Brown Ale has won gold and been voted best in class for Brown Ales in Canada. Cheers! Ken.

Handwritten notes: An outstanding Nut Brown Ale, with leanings towards the American crafts. There is a sexy dance of hops and caramelized malt going on here. This is a beer with huge flavours and it's not afraid to flaunt them. The true test is that, as time goes by, the flavours strengthen as the beer warms. Oakville, here I come!
