Cottonwood Low Down Brown Ale

Brewed by Carolina Beer Company
Style: Brown Ale
Mooresville, North Carolina USA

This is one of those beers thats not great, but not bad either. It pours a deep brown color with a foamy head. Lots of chocolate malt flavor. Finishes off pretty quickly, but still not a bad drink.

POURS A NICE DARK BROWN COLOR. YOU CAN TASTE THE CHOCOLATE MALTS. NICE CRISP FINISH.

Bottle courtesy of ROBORB thanks dude Pours a clear dark maroonish brown with a short lived offwhite head Smell is malty nutty and almost lightly tart with some brown sugar and teriyaki sauce. Taste is kind of tart and sweet with some nuttiness and a bit of a sugary tartness. Medium to thin bodied with normal carbonation. Had a cheapish low quality taste about it and was not one of the better brown ales Ive had, unfortunately

On tap at the UT campus Mellow Mushroom. Deep ruby brown with a small quickly diminishing off white head. Nutty brown malts and sweet aromas. Taste is very nutty with a crisp finish.

pint, at Falls Tap House. weak aroma, Little malt, caramel, brown sugar, papery cardboard. Clean orangy brown color, good head though that might of been the tap line issues they were having. Minor lace. So-so flavor, weak maltiness, chocolate. Minor bitter streak. Lite body, smooth mouthfeel, clean finish that fades away to nothing. Ok at best, nothing stands out, Might resample someday, might not.

This is a simple and excellent beer. It’s not trying to be anything fancy. It’s just quaffable and delicious, and by god, i will buy it again.

Well, I find this somewhat flat. Watery. Fizzy. Muddy. Somewhat soury flavor. Bitter finish. Really not much here. Light chocolatey flavor is lost among the mess this beer is. A shame, as I’ve enjoyed the other Cottonwood beers I’ve had.

Pours a clear dark brown color with huge froathy tan head. Aroma bit nutty and sweet molases. Flavor sweet and nutty, nice malt presence and mouthfeel. Decent brown.
