We headed up to La Vista to visit the new location of Nebraska’s newest brewery. Lucky Bucket Brewing Company has been Brewing since 2009. We were excited to visit the brewery as they also house Sòlas Distillery. Sòlas is currently the only Nebraska distiller with a product on the market (Joss Vodka).

Flossmoor Station – Pullman Brown Ale
Posted By John on May 27th, 2009
Beer: Pullman Brown Ale
Brewery: Flossmoor Station Brewing Co. in Chicago Illinois
Style: Brown Ale
ABV: 6%
Reviewed: 26-May-09 on Episode 142
Appearance: Deep black in color with a tan head.
Aroma: Chocolate, molasses and alcohol were prominent in the aroma.
Taste: Sweet malt, dark chocolate, coffee and alcohol were in the flavor.
Mouthfeel: medium body, creamy with alcoholic warmth.
Aftertaste: residual sweetness and lingering alcoholic warmth.
Overall: A well made dark beer. We don’t know if it’s a brown ale, but it is tastey.
Notes: To our panel it came across more like a Imperial Stout. The alcohol we tasted and smelled would have been very agressive for a 6% beer. If by some chance of fate we recieved stout in a brown ale bottle the grades for this beer would be even higher.

After reading Richard’s notes, I’m pretty sure this wasn’t the brown unless the recipe has dramatically changes.
