This borders on being an American Brown Ale. The Hallertau and Saaz mixture give this beer a spicy taste, and the Malt taste is very evident. The Belgian Caramunich gave the beer its nice nutty flavor. The color is rich and dark. The cold conditioning in the fridge made all the difference in the world. This beer is excellent. Even my fiance' liked it! This beer will probably be a standard brewed for chill autumn nights.
