Lost Coast Downtown Brown

Brewed by Lost Coast Brewery & Cafe
Style: Brown Ale
Eureka, California USA

A nice brown pour with an aroma of toasted malt. A nice maltly flavor with no bitter to speak of a very nice beer. I could and would drink many.

Bottles sampled at issac newtons. Pours deep bronze\brown semi-transparent with a thin light tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, caramel malts, slight piney hops, sweet, and slight fruit. The flavor is mostly caramel, roast, citrus, fruit, and well balanced hops. Good body, good brew.

Decent beer overall, but way too malty for my tastes. It’s a brown, so I guess that’s to be expected, but this one really left me wanting even the hint of some hop flavor in my mouth.

Pours a clear dark brown. Amber light shone through. Small tan head. This smells like a deliciously roasted hazelnut brown ale, but with a ton of caramel in the nose. I can’t stress the caramel enough. It really smells delicious. The sip was not as flavorful as the nose led me to believe, but it was still very pleasant. Good roasted malt flavor with a sort of peanut-buttery taste underneath. Good full flavor, but doesn’t fill you up. Very easy-drinker from Lost Coast.

Nice brown color, very little head. Taste is a medium intensity maltiness with roasted tones, coffe, sublte fruitiness, and sweetness. Clean finish is nice, but moreflavor intensity would have made this beer great. Overall, still a solid brown ale.

Hey a nice brown ale that goes down smooth without the heavy taste of a porter or stout! Ha, good beer though. I will be buying more of this. Pours a dark maple bronze color. Aroma is of figs, walnuts, and sweet yeast! Good beer, yeah, the taste is nice on a summer day too.

Nose has caramel malts with with dark fruits and citrus notes; brown with a small beige head; Caramelly malt with a little plum in the flavor department.

Finally, the commemorative beer for Downtown Freddie Brown, the captain of the 1978-79 World Champion Seattle Sonics. Like the player, this beer features a balanced attack and a smooth, likeable style. <!-- BR --><!-- BR --> Downtown retired in 1984 as the Sonics’ all-time leader in games played (963), scoring (14,108), field goals (6,006) and steals (1,149). He is also third in minutes (24,422), assists (3,160) and steals (1,149), sixth in free throws made (1,896) and tenth in rebounds (2,637). His 58-point outburst at Golden State on Mar. 23, 1974 remains the best single game scoring total in franchise history.
