Left Hand Deep Cover Brown Ale

Brewed by Left Hand Brewing Co.
Style: Brown Ale
Longmont, Colorado USA

Bottle pours deep amber, small milkish white head, spotty lacing, with very little carbonation.   Malts, grass, and nuts on the nose.   Flavor is forwardly malty, slight roasted flavor comes through at the middle.   Finish shows off more of the malt and some nutty tones.   Slightly sweet, rather easy to drink this is.   A little too nutty for my taste, but still good.

Sampled from a bottle, I poured this into my snifter. It is a deep brown body with a rocky white head. Slightly hazy body with decent lacing. The aroma is very bland. Hardly distinguishable from nothingness. There is a light burnt toast and sweet caramel. The flavor has a weird malt/weedy flavor. Odd grains/malts. Not liking the flavor at all. Sweet. Probably better used to boil brats or to use to make some gravy. The flavor’s not offensive, just very strange and not to my likings. The palate is moderate. This beer’s not for me. Drain pour.

Update: I used 9 oz of this to make an oatmeal bread instead of water. I used regular white flour and oatmeal and this bread has a nice taste. More so than normal. This beer works better for baking than drinking.

Some roasty malt aroma. Darker shade of red for body color. Small tan head that diminished to a layer over top of beer that looked like a bacteria sample under a microscope. Some lacing. Flavor was lacking somewhat watery. Definently smooth easy drinking beer, smooth on palate.

Not much aroma. Looks okay. Little head. A light flavor with ho hops noticeable. A bit sweet. Okay.

12 oz bottle pours light brown wiht a short offwhite head. Aroma is caramel malts with a little brown sugar. Taste is caramel, brown sugar, toffee and a touch of honey. On the palate this is fairly light and watery but very easy to drink. Nothing distinguishes this from any other brown ale that I’ve had though. Average..

Bottle from Suttree. Thanks!
Pours an average amber with an aroma of Grape Nuts. Flavor is Grape Nuts and fresh biscuits. Average mouthfeel. Not bad, but Grape Nuts is better as a cereal.

Bottle at Delirium Café, Göteborg, Sweden. Reddish brown, small head. Weak fruity malt aroma, some earthy hops. A bit thin and watery, but with a good balance and a decent bitter finish.

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods in Winston-Salem, NC. Pours a slightly hazed orange bronze color with a medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma is very nutty with some toffeeish notes. Taste is caramel, toffee, mild hops and slight coffee and toast. Medium bodied.
