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 Mondial. Aroma of brown sugar, malt and treacle, dark copper, tiny tan head. Soft taste of malt, some butterscotch notes and woody too. Light bodied, sweet, bitter and drinkable. Good.

hmmmm - nothing too memorable about this beer. It is worth a try, sweet aftertaste.

Malty thick at the back of the swallow but thin and hoppy upfront. this continues thru the lingering finish. Brownish red with a short lived head. average at best.

12oz bottle poured into an English pint. LHDCBA pours... you guessed it... brown. It has a medium soapy-looing head. It smells like baking cinammon bread. It has a stale malty flavor but a is balanced pretty well with a nice hop bill. The whole beer has a nice mouthfeel, both full and slightly chewy. This is a decent brown but not anything to get too excited about.

Bottle. Pours a copperish brown with a small tan head. Nose is slightly vegetal with malt, light caramel, and hops. Light fruit notes as well. Taste is better with creamy malts, caramel, light buttery popcorn notes, dried fruits, and light hops. Body is light-medium with moderate carbonation feel. Finishes with more caramel, malted sweetness, light hops, and dried fruit. Not too bad.

Brown ale rating #100. Woohoo for numbers! Bottle. Filtered, clear medium dark caramel brown. Big dusty caramel syrup and maple cracker malt nose, dry and parched. Fresh, chewy, vibrant presence on the palate, but develops a sour, vegetal twang over the middle, turns into a strange minty toothpaste pastiness in the back. Smells decent enough, but tastes suspect.

Very red for a brown ale. A little too red for my liking. So red that it would have been outlawed during the Cold War. Someone must have colored outside the lines with the red Crayola, who stole the brown?

nice brown color, thin tan head, nutty malty, somewhat chocolatey aroma. flavor is essentially the same. for a brown ale, this isn’t too bad.
