Goose Island Nut Brown Ale

Goose Island Nut Brown AleI went camping yet again this week, this time I loaded to cooler up with my new favorite Goose Island beer. With one day left, I ran out. I ended up at a local liquor store where I thought I’d stick with Goose Isalnd, but decided to try something new. Goose Island Nut Brown Ale was the winner.

After I got back to camp, I poured one of these in my favorite camping beer glass. Great pour, my initial thought was this was a good looking dark beer. I prepared a Victor Sinclair cigar and pulled my chair under a shade tree to watch my children fish as I enjoyed my beer. I found Heaven.

The taste of the Nut Brown Ale was noticeably nutty, and I could taste hints of caramel. It was creamy, and dark but not too heavy. It is a good meal beer, but also good enough to have a few on it’s own, as I did just that in my chair. I highly recommend this beer for anyone who likes darks. If you’re going out and want to put away more than one or two, you might want to find something else.
