Commercial Description:
CBC’s medal winning old town brown is a German-style brown ale. This beer has a clean well rounded dark malt character which creates a mild chocolate aroma and flavor. Colder fermentation temperatures and long cellaring time makes our brown a truly smooth all round brew.

i drank this out of a 1/2 gal. growler at 8:00 in the morning after 14 hours of night crew. so it had a metalic taste due to the tap and my brain may have been a little off due to lack of sleep, good beer though

Pours a light brown/amber color. Lightly malty aroma. Has a bit of a roasted malty flavor. Some roasted nutty qualities in the finish as well.

A decent brown ale, earthy malts, mild hops picking up on the end. Smoother, easy drinking but nothing special.

The walk-up bar at the Four Queens on Fremont Street has Old Town Brown on draft for $3 USD a pint. Great nut brown flavor, aroma and caramel color. Excellent session beer, even if that session is on your feet wandering around the Fremont Street Experience.

Clear and deep amber with nice lace. Chewy-sweet caramel. Hints of wood, tobacco, brown sugar, and a slightly spicy bitterness. OK beer, but too sweet.
