Commercial Description:
Painstaking effort by our brewer in the selection of 6 different malts and 4 varieties of hops result in this burnished brown ale. Roasted barley and chocolate malt give this beer a rich balance of flavors, while added wheat provides a lively, long-lasting head. Like its namesake, this bridge is worth waiting for!

Faint floral nose, that follows through with some roasted caramel. Pretty mild flavors, somewhat subdued, with a hint of light chocolate and nuttiness. Light hoppiness in the finish. Decent brown ale.

Pours up a nice clear deep amber, certainly brownish, with a tan to off white head suspending a brown hue in places and some cobweb lacing. Good looking beer. I get almost no aroma on this beer. Might be just a faint roasted maltiness but it’s so light that might just be what I was expecting to smell rather than what I actually get. The taste is roasty maltiness and not really any malt astringency I associate with a brown ale. Pretty tasty and mild in flavor carrying some rich smooth medium to moderately roasted malts. Hey, a faint malt astringency does show up about midway giving the beer that classic brown ale feel. This is an even tasting light weight sessionable brown ale.

Draft at Florida Brewers Guild Beer Fest 2008. Full rating updated as soon as I am more coherent.

Moderately pathetic. This beer lacks substance and flavor. With little to no carbonation and an almost un-noticeable nutty coco flavor, this beer rates poorly for me.

Draught. Pours reddish/brown with a medium tan head. Aroma is full of caramel, and is sweet and nutty, with ample malty thickness. Flavor has some nice roastiness, as well as sweeter caramel notes, and a good hop profile. Probably one of the best brown ales I’ve had.

Very faint roasted malt aroma. Some chocolate and malt in the taste. Very smooth clean aftertaste.

Light toasted malt notes with a slightly nutty fruit accented accompaniment. The body is a ruddy brown and holds a lasting tan head. Toasted malt, light coffee notes, hints of caramel and a bracing burnt malt bitterness in the finish. Fairly good brown ale.
