Saranac Brown Ale, a Brown Ale by Matt Brewing Company12 ounce bottle. One of six beers in the Saranac Sampler Adirondack Trail Mix six-pack. Drunk in Arlington, Virginia.
LABEL STATEMENT:
"This brown ale is brewed with American malt and hops, and traditional ale yeast. Look for a sweet, chocolaty taste, with balanced bitterness resulting in a full flavored but smoothly drinkable beer."
TWT'S STATEMENT:
Saranac Brown Ale pours reddish brown with an ivory head. It is clear and lightly carbonated. It smells of chocolate, yeast, grain. There are also hints of molasses and cranberry on the nose. The flavor is a mixture of nuttiness, faint dark chocolate, and grain.
VERDICT:
Would I drink it again? Sure. The only problem I have is the slight disparity between aroma and flavor. All in all, it was pretty good.
