Jul 22, 2007 July 22, 2007; 12 oz. bottle. I expected more from the brewer of one of my favorite IPAs. A heavy, but nondememo (albeit slightly soapy), brown ale. Wouldn’t seek this out.

Jul 9, 2007 Old Brown Dog is a clear and unsparkling brown ale with a small white head that lasted for a second. It has decent lacing. It carries a sweet, tart, caramel aroma with a bit of chocolate, roast, a bit of spruce... and maybe chai. A very rich aroma, indeed. The body is medium light and a tad flat. It has a decent bitterness, a little tartness, some resin flavor, an almost saltiness or brine flavor-- like a pickle. It’s a bit acidic. It has a chocolate aftertaste (not dark chocolate) which fades to almost juniper. A quite complex flavor indeed. It’s not a very solid taste, but something to get the wheels turning. Every sip is a bit different.

Jun 28, 2007 Bottle. Hoppy, malty. Delicious. This beer has a great balance, full body and yet still smooth.

Jun 27, 2007 22oz bottle from the big bottle series and this guy is pretty ordinary. Not a bad beer as it’s fairly easy to drink but not overwhelming in the least bit. I was expecting more. Nice caramel and chocolate aroma with a malty taste.

Jun 26, 2007 Updated: Jul 11, 2007Bottle. Nice aroma of chocolate. However, to me this beer tastes like cigarette water. Awful brew; you can do far better in the brown ales, such as Brooklyn, Newcastle, or any Belgian Bruin.
