As a follow-up to the Winter Welcome, I moved on to yet another product from Samuel Smith and had a Nut Brown Ale. I found the pour to yield a dark, dark orange with light tan foam. The aroma was strong on roasted malt with a faint […]
With the first hint of winter, I opted for yet another product from Samuel Smith and had a Winter Welcome. I found the pour to yield a deep amber with a thick foam. The aroma was malty with a faint citrus scent. The mouth feel was thick and […]
Round 3 of our mini Thanksgiving Day beer tasting was the Saison Dupont Farmhouse Ale. Since I’ve already written about this outstanding beer, this will be more about how it went with our meal. Once dinner was ready, we sat down and immediately started passing around the food. […]
