From the brewer

100% Wisconsin malt of six different varieties impart the natural toasted color to this bottle conditioned unfiltered ale. Clean hazelnut notes result from these carefully chosen barley malts. Hops from Slovenia, Bavaria and the Pacific Northwest give Fat Squirrel its backbone. When the going gets tough, remember to relax a moment and enjoy the "Fat Squirrel" in your neighborhood.

Who's been drinking this

I don't know if this has turned or something? But it does have more of a metallic, hoppy resing, drying finish than I would have expected from a nut brown. It was ok, but ok at best.
Bottle at Odin Lounge
A lovely Midwestern end to my Seattle trip.
Bottle at Family
Probably should have tasted this before the coffee stout, oh well. Still seemed solid.
A nice Brown, slightly less meaty thani would normally expect with a flavor I might liken typo apricot .
