on saleNoodler's Beaver - 3oz Bottled Ink

This ink is splendid. It has a warmer look than plain brown, but it's not so red as the colors like "Brick". It's well behaved too, not totally bullet-proof but definitely staining if the user is careless. The sample shows that it shades, which makes it great for Medium, Broad, or a Stub nib.

I love Noodlers inks they always perform so well in all my fountain pens. This is the perfect brown and you always get a full bottle.

I'm on my third bottle of Noodler's Beaver and continuing to love it. I like a quieter (and dryer) brown for writing marginalia with a very fine nib, but Beaver is excellent for writing letters, journaling, and just plain notes.

Another hit from Nathan at Noodler's Ink. This is a nice reddish brown ink that is pleasing to my eye. I have purchased a bottle after trying a sample. I like it enough to add it to my rotation of journaling colors.

Most of the brown inks lean toward yellowish brown or greenish brown, or just neutral brown. There are not many reddish brown inks out there that don't call themselves brownish red. Noodler's Beaver and Diamine Rustic Brown are both reddish brown, and both are in my lineup of favorite inks.
