Barley Island Cask English Brown

Brewed by Barley Island Brewing
Style: Brown Ale
Noblesville, Indiana USA

Pint off the cask at BI - Aroma is mild toasted malts, caramel and a touch English hops. Flavor is a bit stronger but pretty much the same as aroma. Creamy and smooth palate. Not a bad ale and better than Dirty Helen.

cask at the brewpub - The bartender assured me that this beer was not their regular bottled brown ale, but a new beer made for their cask. It pours dark brown with minimal head. The aroma is mostly caramel malt with a bit of dark fruit in there. It tastes very sweet and full of caramel. The dark fruit from the aroma is detectable. It’s medium bodied and has a very low carbonation level even for the cask.
