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.

Pours deep copper/red with a minimal off-white head. Cerealy, caramely aroma. Body is very toasty and sweet, with lots of caramel and a bit of nuttiness. I could drink several of these.

(bottle - 12 oz) Rich reddish-brown color with a creamy tan head. Aroma is sweet malts, some roasted notes, and some nuts. Flavor begins with roasted malts and toasted nuts. The middle is lightly sweet with some apples and caramel covered almonds. Finishes with a very lightly bitter hop taste.

I had this in a bottle. Ever have a party and find random beer left in the morning? Well, I have no idea how I got this beer, but I drank it none the less. Amber color with a thin beige head. Wet grain nose. Grainy malt taste with some caramel sweetness. Nothing offensive, but nothing very interesting.

a clear amber/mahogany color with a small off-white head. pleasantly sweet aroma of caramel and nuts. the flavor is toasted nuts and caramel as well. not very robust but its a nice drink which i believe to be slightly under-rated. excellent aroma anyway.

bottle - Pours medium brown with a thin head. It has a light caramel malt aroma. The flavor is of course caramel malt and has a little nuttiness to it and a touch of hops. It’s light and rather bland. While it’s drinkable and doesn’t taste bad, I find myself utterly underwhelmed.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a ruby brown color with a small tan head. The aroma is roasty malts and fruity hops. The flavor is roasty and toasty malts with a light floral hop presence. I am not much of a fan of the style but this was surprisingly tasty.

Has a slightly sweet yeasty aroma, almost like Nestle’s chocolate milk. Nicely attractive. Very dark color but not black, clear brown. The flavor of this is quite unique, almost chocolaty in nature. That aroma is so fun! Tho it has a slight detectable bitterness, it is well controlled and it makes this brew easy to enjoy. Good level of carbonation. Much better than Dogfish Head Indian Brown Ale and about on par with Tröegs Rugged Trail Nut Brown Ale. Can’t hold a candle to my local East End Fat Gary. Overall, a very enjoyable brew.

A brown/amber pour with an aroma of sweet roasted malt. A nice sweet malty flavor and just a slight hint of bitter. A nice smooth medium bodied palate. A beer I think I could drink many of, nice beer.
