Cooperstown Striker Brown Ale

Brewed by Cooperstown Brewing Co.
Style: Brown Ale
Milford, New York USA

Bottle purchased in Cooperstown. Clear amber-brown body with a creamy head. Smells like toffee, sweet coffee and a note of milk chocolate. Same flavor profile and is medium sweet with little balancing character of any sort. Thin body—desperately needs to be brewed at a higher mash temperature, I think. Soda-like in flavor and feel. Reminds me of a chocolate-caramel soda. Thin and lacking in depth, much like the MLS.

Bottle. Brown colour with a huge head. Aroma of roastedness and chocolate. Nice smooth a dn tasty flavour of nuts and roastedness. A very nice brown ale.

Bottle. Opaque reddish black in color. 3/4" head. Sudsy. Roasted nuts, smoky (could be the fire I’m sitting next to), malty. Smooth, but again, watery thin body. Nutty finish on the roof of mouth.

Just sampled it, I was told it was only two weeks old. They mentioned it had a bunch of different malts, and while I see that is the case, I feel like it doesn’t contain enough yeast or hop backbone to support all the malt that is present. Its a very malty beer, not a ton of carbination, but an interesting offering to say the least.

Reddish, brown colour with an off white head. Caramel sweet aroma with notes of nuts and cookie. caramel and fruity sweet flavor with a nutty note.

Bottle. A brown beer with a big beige head. Nutty and chocolate aroma and taste. Medium body with a dry finish. A brown ale!
