Maine Coast Jack Russells Best Brown Ale

Brewed by Maine Coast Brewing Company / Jack Russells Brewpub
Style: Brown Ale
Bar Harbor, Maine USA

As it sets in my glass a transparent dark amber to mahogany color, the head modest in size, frothy in texture, the color a nice light tan, and the resultant lace a fine covering sheet to conceal the glass. Nose sweetly malt, crisp and clean, with the start malt sweet and the top middling in its feel to the palate. The finish has a moderate carbonation, the hops persistent in their bite, dry and lingering aftertaste, a quite drinkable beer and another treat from the state of Maine.

Amber brown color with a medium thick head and good lace. Sweet malty aroma, similar to freshly mashed barley. Similar flavor. relatively ligght bodied for a brown and smooth.

Pleasant-looking dark brown with some red tint; smallish head. Nice sweet nutty-malty aroma, but the flavor is really on the bland side. It’s got a good body, a bit of hops, but the nuttiness is weak and there just isn’t a lot going on. Certainly goes down easy, but that’s it.
