Day 26 - Beer 26 Southern Pecan Nut Brown Ale, Lazy Magnolia

A little side trip to Kiln, Mississippi, for some southern hospitality. Southern Pecan Nut Brown Ale is the first beer in the world, so they say, made with whole roasted pecans. "The pecans are used just like grain and provide a nutty characteristic and a delightful depth to the flavor profile". It poured a clear dark chestnut brown colour with almost no head and lacing but it did have some carbonation bubbles that stuck to the sides of the glass. You could smell the pecans and malts with a hint of caramel. With every mouthful you could taste the pecans and roasted malts. Overall a little on the sweet side for an English Brown Ale, but none the less a very interesting and enjoyable beer. I'd give it a 3.8 out of 5.
