Commercial Description:
Our roasted chocolate and pale malts shake hands creating mild caramel flavors. Brown is your new reason to love beer. Hops are added to create the perfect balance of sweetness to hopiness. Brown is back... and it's beautiful.

The beer leaves the 12 ounce bottle a brownish orange with a moderate off white head that evaporates quickly leaving a velum like covering on the glass. Nose has a black walnut like aroma, backed by sweet malt and caramel, start is malt sweet, slight tartness, with the top medium in feel. Finish has a determined acidity; the hops pleasantly spicy, dry aftertaste clings to the palate. Brown ales have been one of my favorite styles, since I sampled my first Newcastle Brown Ale, many years ago, a style I think over looked by many.

12 oz bottle-pours a foamy to shaving cream/rocky light tan head and mahogany color. Aroma is medium/dark malt-toffee/molasses. Taste is initial perfumy (hallertau hops?) which continues then medium/dark malt-toffee/molasses. OK carbonation.

Poured from a bottle. Poured a brown color with an off-white head. Aroma of malts and nuts. Chocolate and caramel malts make up most of the flavor. Smooth and easy drinking, but a bit thin. Decent.

Had this beer on 4/7/2007. Aroma is faint with just a hint of malt. Color is a nice brown with light carbonation and a thin head. Taste is smooth and sweet. Starting with a light/medium body it goes down smooth with just a slight bite on the end. Finish comes in with a sweet malt flavor and very light hop flavor and mild bitterness.

From a 12-ounce bottle. Pours a frothy amber color with slight tan head. Medium-bodied, with a very full mouthfeel. Early even dry/sweet malty flavor balance leads to a dry finish. Little hops presence. Clean, but a bit over-carbonated.

This just looks and smells like an ok brown ale, but the warm caramelly malt flavor of this beer time and again keeps me ordering a second glass instead of trying something else. Not an exceptional beer, but caramel is my favorite sweet so this beer is my standard at Bridgeport!
