Commercial Description:
Deep Cover Brown Ale is brewed in the tradition of the brown ales commonly enjoyed in the U.K. Despite its reddish-brown color, it is light bodied and slightly sweet, making it a very drinkable and refreshing brew. Dark caramel malts lend this ale its rich color, while toasted and Munich malts provide just enough body to be truly enjoyable.

Bottle. Pours brown, as the name implies, with a medium, of-white head. Aroma is malty and slightly nutty. Flavor is malty, and very sweet. Creamy mouthfeel. Not too bad, but better brown ales are out there.

Bottle. Pours a reddish-amber with almost no head, just a thin ring of foam. Aroma is malty and very sweet. Tastes pretty sweet and also very thin. A little watery. Kind of boring. Bottom line: Not a fan. Wouldn’t buy again.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Total Wine - Richmond, 7/21/09

Aroma: Caramel, roasted malt, nutty aroma
Appearance: Brown color, thin tan/light brown head
Flavor: Mostly malty, light hops, caramel malts really come out as it warms
Palate: Light to medium in body, OK mouthfeel
Overall Impression: As a lefty I like the brewery name, I haven’t necessarily been blown away by most of the beers I’ve tried from them, but they have been solid. This one is a decent example of the brown style, but it just doesn’t blow you away.

12 fl oz Bottle in Longmont, Colorado 10/10/2007 Some carbonation. Pale malt aroma. Amber coloured and hoppy with some dryness and bitterness in a fresh malt finish.

Pours a clear, medium brown with hints of red with a thin tan head. Aroma is nutty and roasty with some caramel malts. Tastes of caramel and roasted malts, vanilla, chocolate, toffee, and a bit nutty with a light hoppy finish. Not bad.

BOTTLE: reddish-brown pour, aroma of caramel, malt, and nuts. Thin body, but smooth, taste of caramel and light roast.

Deep Dark Roasted grains meet thick layers of caramel, malt and vanilla. Hop bitterness is the backdrop. Thin mouthfeel makes this beer more ordinary but I still believe this Brown Ale is underrated on this site.

Spare head, and spare lacing. Hazy appearance. Heavy malt & light hops flavors. Light body, and thin texture.
