James Page Burly Brown Ale

Translucent brown color like advertised. The head fades to nothing and bubbles are absent. A malty initial smell with caramel hints as well. A touch of hops come in the aroma at the end. Taste is sweet and sharp with a b ig malt, it reminds me of a strong sasparilla or root beer.Although its sweet it also displays some mature hops to dry up the beer and counter a big malt sweetness. The palate is juicy and refreshing surprising for a bold malt beer. This is a class brown ale and I like it.

Six pack from Tali’s C-Store. Deep amber / brown color with a light tan head. Mile aroma dominated by toasted malt. Pleasant, sweet flavor with a bit of hops and chocolat malt in the finish. Smooth and rather light in body and flavor. Nice enough.

Pour is brown with a small tan head. Aroma is sweet malts and not much else. Flavor is slighly rosted malt with a touch of chocolate at the end. Nothing really great. It’s a brown ale.

Deep amber with a white head. Aroma is of english malt. Kinda skunky and funky. Full bodied with a creamy texture. Noble malt taste on the finish.

Had this from a bottle at an Old Chicago in order to help fulfill a world beer tour, methinks...

Deep copper with a cream colored head that fades. Malty aroma, with some caramel and molasses as well. Medium light body with very little flavor. A little astringent in the finish.

Ruby brown with a thin, creamy off white head. Light aroma of roasted malt. Flavor is slightly burnt toffee, roasted malt and a light bitter, nutty finish. Light bodied with mild carbonation.

Dark amber to light brown appearance. Fresh lake water aroma - good sized off-white head, very good thick lacing. Slight toffee and caramel notes in the flavor. Nutty back end, hints of chocolate. Pleasant mouthfeel Overall, a quaffable brew, nothing spectacular, just all around decent.
