This ‘Trad Ale’ is described by Big Rock as an English Brown Ale, which I find particularly interesting coming from a Canadian brewer, and it definitely has some of those sweetish, malty notes associated with an English Brown. Although it is only just medium-bodied it does have some nice, very light hoppy flavour, making it an easy beer to drink. It would be well paired with summer evening barbecues or slices of emmental cheese.  Although not overly nutty in the mouth, it does leave you with a hazelnut flavour on the finish. Not bad at all!

ABV: 5%

Best Served: 10°C
