Commercial Description:
Brooklyn Brown Ale, made exclusively with American ingredients, won Bronze medals at the Great American Beer Festival in the Strong Ale Category in 1991 and in the American Brown Ale Category in 1992. Brooklyn Brown uses pale, crystal, chocolate, and black malts to attain a complex creamy texture. It is more heavily hopped than its British forbears.

Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in McKinney, TX. Pours a clear brown, orange hues, with off-white head. Aroma of toasted grain. Flavor of faint caramel, toasted grains, as well as a slight hoppy flavor and nice small bitter. Light-medium body with high carbonation....Over all, easy drinking and tasty..
