Sierra Nevada Tumbler

Profile: The newest addition to the Sierra Nevada portfolio of seasonal beers, Tumbler Autumn Brown Ale conjures falling leaves and cooler weather. But even as temperatures hover in the 80's here in the northeast into September. this malty brew offers a welcome contrast to the flood of IPAs and hopped-up hybrid beers around right now, and I'm welcoming that.

Made with freshly roasted chocolate and smoked malts, Tumbler should have a profusion of dark cocoa and coffee notes, balanced by mildly spicy and fruity aromas and flavors and some hop bitterness, but it's barely noticable to me.Overall, super smooth and a decent commercial beer by a brewer known for hopiness aka Sierra Nevada Pale Ale Perfume beer!!
