Chubby Bear Brown Ale

I've been drinking IPAs exclusively lately. So tonight when I ran out to the liquor store I grabbed a 4-pack of Chubby Bear Brown Ale from Opa-Opa Brewing Co. out of Southampton, MA.

It has a nutty nose, but its a bit bitter to the taste. After a few sips I gave it up as a bad bargain. My all-time favorite of the brown ales is Wachusett's Nut Brown, and sadly, this one pales in comparison. I have three more cans, so I'll give it at least one more go, but so far I'm not impressed, especially since Opa-Opa makes one of my go-to IPAs.
