Commercial Description:
This dark, rich ale is based on the combination of eight different malts and cereals. This yields a complex malt profile with some sweetness, balanced by American hops, which also provides the ale with a citrussy aroma. Can be enjoyed on a cold day by itself or with grilled meat and hearty stews. Ølfabrikken Brown Ale is, of course, unpasteurized, unfiltered and bottle conditioned like all of our beers.

Bottle (50 cl) at Bishops Arms, Järntorget, Göteborg, Sweden. Hazy brownish amber with low off-white head. Chocolate, green vegetables, earthy hops. Light to medium bodied, nicely balanced.

Flaske. Nu er Brown ales normalt ikke min type øl, men det her er en rigtig lækker udgave. Tilpas humlet til at opveje den nogengange klistrende sødhed der er i Brown Ales, men det er jo hvad man forventer sig. Flot brun farve og god smag.

500ml Bottle in Pikkulintu, Helsinki- Dark brown with red tinges. Flowery, aromatic aroma. Very nice hoppy tase with chocolate and a lovely bitterness.

Draught @ Ølbaren. Small fizzy white head that mostly diminished. Fair display of lacework. Clear and somewhat flat looking body with a brown color. Aroma of moderated malt and roasted malt, fruit and a hint of caramel or toffee like notes. Over the palate an again a mix of malty notes with a hint of hops. Toffee, floral, apricot, toasted malt. Medium bodied with an average carbonation and hint of dry texture. Moderated sweet malty assent with a hint of bitterness at the very end. Quit nice.

A Mes rate: 50cl bottle at Pigs Ear.
Awesome rich mid-brown with a good white head. Fantastic aroma that is typical of Ølfabrikken. Chocolate brownies and wheat with that characteristic lick of Scandinavian hoppage. Flavour has all that the aroma has but it doesn’t work quite so well. That said this is still one of the best Brown Ales I have had to date.

Very aromatic beer, way beyond the standard brown ale. Aromatic, sweet, but there are hops, too. Another fine beer from Ølfabrikken.

Bottled - Pigs Ear BF. A murky brown coloured beer with an off-white pool for a head. The aroma is nicely hoppy with bready caramel malts. There are more hops in the flavour, together with chocolate and wood. Smooth and tasty and a nice to see beers like this at London beer festivals.

Bottle at Pig’s Ear BF 08. Like the porter, this is excellent. Really good ingredients. Good intensity, good malts. Tasty. Just a lovely beer. Good sting on end. Sweetish brown malt is balanced by finishing zing.
