Got this crowler on Christmas from my daughters boyfriend. It leans towards the brown ale side with roasted malt and adding in a nutty & toffee taste making it slightly sweet. Now the hoppy side leans towards pine with some grapefruit. It gives this beer nice light bitterness (takes away a lot of the brown ale sweetness) and adds a dry finish. Overall it is like a 60% brown ale with 40% IPA mixed together. I find it pretty tasty.
