What's a double nut brown? High abv, extra malty?

definitely high abv and extra malty, the most popular one i know of is from mammoth brewing. im sure its not technically a true 'style' of beer but ive had it before and its good. similar to a porter but with nuttier characteristics. mainly i dont know how much hops to use to offset the malty sweetness of using lots of malts.

have you tried an internet search by the brew name? Sometimes that has worked for me (as in the Rogue Mocha Porter clone I just purchased from Austin Homebrew)

By the way, AHB is cool enough to tell you exactly what is in the kit. I got the mini-mash version. Should be interesting as the hops are different, the bill is different and the yeast is different. But there are many roads to Rogue.
