E. J. Phair Brown Ale

Brewed by E. J. Phair Brewing Company
Style: Brown Ale
Concord, California USA

Sparkles in the glass (didn’t know until I saw soemone else’s). Slight grain tannins, mildly spritzy but that’s welcome, a little more deeply roasted than my favorite browns and yet there’s some good cocoa in there along with some interesting esters. This was another happy accident in brewing -- a creative mixture of two beers to come up with something different. Another reason to rate outside of styles.
