Year of New Beer: Brown Royal, West 6th/Quaff Bros (KY)

Written By: Dion on 10/14/2016

Sweet on the nose as caramel and traces of chocolate are layered over dark fruits, nuts, and a soft whiskey aroma. Very similar on the tongue as the maple syrup aspect becomes quite evident, lending a persistent sweetness that presents as brown sugar and toffee. Roasted nuts and a mild, earthy hop bitterness join an oak influence that sticks around through the finish. Throughout the glass, a warm whiskey burn holds on but never interferes with the overall drinkability. This is a nice beer.
