Dogfish Head Indian Brown Ale

Brewed by Dogfish Head Brewery
Style: Brown Ale
Milton, Delaware USA

Bottle - World Market - Not much hop aroma and some malts but not as much as I would expect in a brown ale. Appears to be black once poured with thin brown head. Lots of different malty flavors that tasted good on the palate. Almost a liquor flavor with some caramel and maybe coffee tastes; but NOT hot with alcohol like some high ABV beers. The 50 IBU’s is noticed in the aftertaste. For my taste, I wish they would have moved some of the bittering hops over to the favoring boil time to catch more of the Liberty/Golding hop flavors. Overall - above average but prefer the 60 minute IPA.

Bottle. Dark brown/copper pour, offwhite head. Aroma of caramel, roast, and hop. Medium mouthfeel. Taste of malt, chocolate, nut - very easy drinking, yet has pretty good depth of flavor.

The commercial description includes American Pale Ale....where did they come up with this. Dark, rich, warming, and thick is my off the cuff description. Very tasty brew that is full of roasty flavours and nicely hopped. Native Americans rejoice, this beer would have kept you warm in the winter! So good that my wife, a confirmed hophead loved it.

Bubbly, long-lasting head. Aroma of smoked caramel. Flavor of toast, caramel, nicely balanced by not too bitter hops. Very Flavorful. Well Done.

Bottle, 7.2%. Vinous aroma, roasted, smells a little lagered. Clear dark brown colour. Small stable light brown head. The flavour is nicely roasted, slightly sweet. Not as vinous as the aroma, but still a bit vinous. OK balanced. Roasted aftertaste with a good deal of barley bitterness which gets a bit rough after a while.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours dark brown with a huge and slight brown head. Aroma is dark and slight chocolate malt. Smooth malty and slight chocolate flavoured. Smooth chocolate and malty flavoured, light vanilla note. Smooth malty into the far finish. Ends nice and easy.

Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a pint glass The color is a dark black with light brown head with some nice lacing. The smell is a coffee bean flavor with a deep roasty malt flavor. Some slight brown sugar and hops flavor. The taste is roasty with some dark malt and burnt suagr flavor. There is some slight hint spicy brown sugar and caramel. The feel is really great and is a nice medium feel. It’s slightly carbonated and goes down well.
