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.

[Another century celebrated with a Mikkeller beer - this time 6900] A deep red beer with a huge bubbly brown head. The aroma is roasted combined with notes of chocolate, and some citrusy hop notes - I find the roastyness somewhat like toasted bread. The flavor is sweet with notes of nuts, chocolate, roasted bread, something like a toasted Enlish toast bread with Nutella spread on, before the hops hits, with a citrusy note, that soon turns into a very bitter end, hop bitter that is - not from the roasted malt. I like that this Brown Ale has more body than the typical specimen, but even being a hop head - I find the bitterness in the end, not suiting the style.

(Bottle 66 cl) Pours a clear, orangey brown with a yellowish head. Aroma of roasted malt and citrusy aroma hops. Medium-bodied with roasted, malty notes and some coffee. Bbut otherwise completely dominated by distinct aroma hops also leaving a solid dose of bitterness. Probably the hoppiest Brown Ale I’ve ever had - in reality an India Brown Ale? 110806

Draught at Københavnske Øldage. Dark brown. Some grapefruity hops up front. Very dry and very salty, notes of chocolate. The clean mouthfeel makes it a bit harsh. Lots of aromatic hops polishes trhe surface, but the malt character is a bit raw. Not my favourite Mikkeller.

66 cL bottle. Pours hazy brown/amber with a light brown and dense head. The foam is leaving nice lacework on the glass as the glass is being emptied. Fruity and slight malty aroma with a minor woody note. Flavour starts fruity from the hops before the smooth chocolate malt takes over. Soon after this a more roasted malt profile turns up and way is given to a slight coffee note. Not much time is granted before a strong bitterness is breaking the malt flavours. A nice blend of malt and hops keeps lingering into the rather dry finish.

Draught. Nicely balanced, roasted aroma. Flavour is dusty and slightly sweet. Clear dark brown colour. Very small cremy head. Some malt bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel with a little bubbles. Smells better than it tastes. 8 3 6 3 14

Bottle, 6.0%. Refreshing grassy hop aroma. Dark brown colour, nice light brown head. Very roasted flavour, a good deal of hoppiness, wet grass. Rather high bitterness, drying out my mouth. Reminds me more of dry stout than brown ale. 7 3 7 3 16

Bottle. Dark brown coloured with a beige head. Roasted aroma with notes of oat, coffee and chocolate (the oat is a bit too dominating for my liking). Light roasted flavour of coffee, chocolate and hops with notes of oat and flowery notes. Dry roasted finish.
