Talking Braxton Brewing Lumber - Video Beer Review #376

I decided to go local here with Braxton Brewing Company and introduce their Lumber. This Scotch Wee Heavy Ale is part of their Garage Series and comes in at 8.5% ABV along with a 30 IBU. 
The beer pours out a dark brown color that is capped with a nice tan head. What can be expected from the aromas is a nice sweetness that carries notes of caramel and toffee, as well as a bit of creaminess. And the taste provides a malt forward sweetness and a bit of a caramelized creamy texture. Behind that comes a well carbonated beer that is loaded with a nice duration of the flavor.
