Commercial Description:
Brewed by Mikkeller at Ørbæk Bryggeri, Ørbæk, Denmark.
Mikkellers tribute to the foul-mouthed stewardess Jackie Brown from Quentin Tarantino’s movie of the same name. It’s a roasty, chocolaty brown ale with hints of coffee and licorice. Being a Mikkeller brew the malts are inevitably complimented by a great amount of hop bitterness, aroma and flavour.
Ingredients : Water, malt (pale, munich, cara-pils, cara-crystal, brown and chocolate), flaked oats, hops (nugget, simcoe and centennial) and ale yeast.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with an off-white head. Nose of roasted malt and caramel. Sweet flavour of malt. and hops. Well balanced and medium bodied. Very enjoyable.

Pours a clear deep dark brown with frothy off white head. The aroma is roasted malts mixed with brown sugar and mild caramel. It then moves more roasty and burnt as opposed to sweet. The taste is smooth and starts with roasted malts along with a mild malt astringency. It then becomes mildly sweet but with even more roasted malts than the early part of the taste. Into the finish I get more malt astringency that is just right for the style

16.9 oz longneck bottle. Rich thick brown black colors, with some orange corners where the light can get through. Decent head. Amazingly fresh aroma of syrupy hops. The taste is quite nice and hoppy as well, with no spiciness, just an earthy sweet bitterness. This beer is awesome, maybe the best brown ale I’ve ever had. The malts are there, they just happen to be perfectly balanced with the unapologetic hops. Bittersweet dark malt aftertaste. Another amazing beer from Mikkeller.

Bottle. What the fuck happened here? I am pretty sure this bottle had something very strange happen. I’m almost convinced that this was mislabeled. Pale amber-brown, very clear with a thick head. Nose is hoppy with light caramel notes. Flavor is also hop-heavy, sort of a stale hop character. Tastes nothing like a brown and nothing like a coffee-beer. Tastes like a malty IPA with a touch of chocolate. I’m confused and disappointed.

Apr 2, 2008 Bottle from Cracked Kettle. Dark brown body. Foamy head. Roasted coffee aroma. Taste is also real roasty with chocolate well-pronounced. Also taste of coffee, toffee and licorice. Very creamy texture. Quite bitter as well. Enjoyable.

Bottle. Dark red brown with an off-white foam. Aromas are nutty and spicy with chocolate and roast malts. Woody and yeasty. Flavours are very bitter coffee with yeast and spices. Peppery and prickly with some sweet cola. Burnt, woody notes come through along with grapefruit bitterness on the finish. Good stuff.

Large creamy offwhite head, retention is good, sticky, webby lacing is nice. Lightly hazy brown color. Nose is light roast and toast with a faint pineyness. Body is med/light, over carbonated, prickly co2 bites. Light roast and coffee flavors with bigger piney hop flavors unbalancing this one out. Dry, chocolatey finish. Meh. Bottle procured @statelineliquors.
