A brew to commemorate my coworkers who are gone with the wind. One friend is from the UK while the other is from California, so I'm going with a sort of British-American Brown Ale fermented with either British or American yeast strains.

Notes:

Pours 1.5 fingers of foam in an opaque black, brown on the edges of the glass where the light is more prevalent. Aroma is almost non-existent to me, perhaps a little bit of chocolate. Flavor is sort of a chocolate coffee flavor, with coffee cake notes. Mouthfeel is thin, like Guinness, and carbonation is very soft. Overall, the water profile is spot on and the beer is pretty good. The only thing it's lacking is more flavor - more nutty and chocolate flavors. 4 stars.
