Commercial Description:
ACME CALIFORNIA BROWN ALE is creamy smooth after the style made famous in the north of England. It's toasty with hints of cherry and black currant. Acme Brown is brewed according to tradition with high dried and brown malt, and lightly finished with the Noble hops Tettnang and Hallertauer. The result is a very drinkable beer that can be enjoyed for an entire evening.

A dark beer with a hint of a fruity taste. This will go nicely with my Taco Bell for Dinner!

With just a bit of fizz, this product of Wile E. Coyote's favorite company has full, complex flavor with a pleasant "carbony" finish and aftertaste.

Pours out a dark brown with a foamy intricate head. Is slightly cloudy in appearance. The smell is creamy and malty. Taste is a crisp and creamy brown that rests well on the palate and coats all the way down.

Creamy and smooth is a good description. This chocolatey tasting brown is very good. The Hops seem to make themselves more present than with most browns. Meshes in nicely with the brown malt.

Dark brown color with medium sized light tan head. Very nutty taste with hints of caramel chocolate and yeast. No real hop taste and not too swet. Very good brown. I love North Coast.

An average ale. This brown ale pours an amber orange color with a slight off-white head that last for the entire bottle. Not much aroma going on here other than a grassy, oaky aroma. The taste s much better with some oak, vanilla, and honey. It is sweetly pleasant with a small hops aftertaste that balances the beer quite well. I would buy it again if I wanted to drink something quality for an entire afternoon.

This is a very good balance of sweet malt, and light hops. I would definitly reach for this again.
