Sweet Georgia Brown

Tap to rate

Sweet Georgia Brown is a dark, soft and full-bodied ale. The aroma brings caramel, nuts and lightly roasted notes, and the taste is round and harmonious with a light sweetness that plays against the dark malts. English aroma hops add an elegant bitterness that holds the balance. Dark malt gives it its deep colour, and it stays easy to drink without turning heavy.

◐ Taste

The palate opens round and full-bodied, with prominent caramel sweetness balanced by the depth of dark malts and a light toasted grain character. The English hops deliver restrained but elegant bitterness—around 24 IBU—that prevents sweetness from becoming cloying, creating a harmonious interplay throughout the mid-palate.
