Left Hand Deep Cover Brown Ale

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

A reddish-muddy type color. Aroma is slight hints of caramel. Murky mouthfeel. Somewhat muddled between too sweet to too malty. Still refreshing with a clean aftertaste.

12 oz bottle from the Teeter...Pours reddish brown with a head, slightly creamy, that dissipates quickly. Aroma of chocolate, caramel, slight fruit. Taste has similar traits, sweet and malty, with a hint of smoke. The mouthfeel is slightly thin and watery, like someone left some extra water in the glass before the pour. Carbonation is thin and sharp. Low alcohol content and decent taste makes this a decent beer for multiple continuous consumptions in a day/evening, but the thinness keeps it from being a top line brown.

Bottle at Delirium Cafe, Göteborg. Amber color, nice offwhite head. Malty chocolate aroma,a bit roasted and with raisins. Malty flavor with vegetable notes. A bit thin.

dead copper body, thick bone white head with chunky lacing. this beer is primarily nutty and sweet, and with a tangy fruitiness seperate from the aformentioned sweetness. itza brown!

Clear nutty brown colour with a small frothy head. Aroma is caramel malt with some nuttyness. Flavour is clean and slightly nutty sweet with some bitterness. Finish is clean and lightly acidic.

Pours a grayish-brown with medium tan head. Nose is malt and chocolate. The flavor is rather odd... almost vegetal, very grainy, some mild malty sweetness. Rather thin palate. OK I guess.

This beer seems to be sort of a straightforward beer. It has a distinct alcohol taste but is relatively smooth for that type of drink. It has a light malt flavor and is a easy drinking beverage.

Pours a clear but dark brown that has ruby edges when held to light. Nose is a woody cotton candy. Flavor is a bit too sweet I say. Sure there are some nice bark like characteristics there, but it is just a little too loud in the sugar department. Over time though that seems to calm down and you are given more of that earthy, woody, brown ale character. Still seems a little too light on the end though. Feel is fine. But the overall drinkability stays good at best. Just seems to lack the right edge that would send it to another level. There certainly is potential there, but it just doesn’t come through.
