Maduro Oatmeal Brown Ale – Maduro is a Northern English-style brown ale with some American affectations. It is unlike the typical American Brown Ale, as it doesn’t have the big hop character common in American-brewed Brown Ales. And Maduro is higher in alcohol than the common English brown ale. Maduro also has oats, in the malt bill which imparts a silky body and aids in making the roasted, toasted and chocolate components mesh together in Maduro's complex malt profile. The end result is a remarkably full flavored yet approachable and sessionable brown ale that pairs well with cigars. 5.5% ABV
Tasting Notes – Big caramel and toffee in the aroma with moderate notes of roasted nuts and hints of chocolate. The flavor opens with toasted bread and moves into a prominent caramel sweetness and then notes of roasted peanuts and finally fudgey, chocolatey, coffee notes linger into the finish.
