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.

<#300>Dark brown look, with a light brown head. Aroma of roasted chocolate malts and a nice hob blend, like a roasted malt ipa...or something. Flavor is mainly bitter. A mix between the raw chocolate, and the hobs. Has a medium bodie, which makes it alot more drinkable than a stout, and of course the powerfull hob profile makes it more fresh and interesting than the standard brown ale. Holds a resemblance to the american brown ales. I find the palate quite oily, though not as thich - but very smooth. The chocolate follows nicely into the aftertaste.

(Bottle, thanks Papsoe) Midway between a brown ale and a barley wine. Sweet and sour, packed with fruity flavours. Beautiful.

Bottle. Light brown high creamy lasting and good looking head. Hazy very dark red body. Spicy choccolate aroma. Strong choccolate flavor heavily hopped. Well balanced though

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.

Hazy brown with creamy beige head. Aroma of cascade, roasted malts and lots of cocoa/chocolate. Super mouthfeel. Taste has lots of chocolate and quite bitter at the end.

Dark brown with a huge greyish head. A very hoppy aroma given the style, with some notes of coffee and chocoate. The flavour is also dominated by hoppy bitterness but in combination with nuts and roasted malts. I’m very fond of the creamy texture and full body of this foxy lady.

Picked this bottle up from Uto Beer stall, Borough Market stall, Lahndan tahn, 21-06-08 consumed 04-07-08. Pours conker brown looking a little murky in the depths and with a light brown head. Burnt coffee, roasted malts and some soft brown sugar leap forth from the nose. The taste is fiercely bitter the burnt coffee that was present in the nose returns in the mouth along with some burnt cinder toffee and some further immensely roasted flavours its also hopadoodletastic, very, very nice.

Bottle from BottleTrek.com. Does Mikkeller make a bad beer? Pours a clear mahogany with a thick frothy tan head. Roasted malt aroma and hops. Besides the roastiness in the flavor, it also has subtle hints of chocolate and toffee. What is so good and unique about this beer is the hoppiness. I was not expecting it, but it somehow works. I am not a big fan of brown ales, but this is a very remarkable brew.
