Winterbraun

Name – Winterbraun
Country – United States
Type – English Brown Ale

Appearance – Poured a clear, amazing deep red color with a big slightly off white head.

Smell – Sweet caramel with some roasted malts and roasted nuts.

Taste – Subtle roasted malts followed by roasted nuts and finishes smooth and sweet with caramel and a bit of a chocolate taste.

Of the Lost Coast brews I have tried so far I have been underwhelmed but my never giving up on a brewery has paid off as I find Winterbraun to be a very good brown ale.  It doesn’t really have the winter type spices to it like other winter beers but does have a bit of a warming effect with the roasted nuts and malt type flavors in it.  I wish this one was a year rounder.

Overall Grade – A
