Tooheys Old

Brewed by Tooheys (Lion Nathan Co.)
Style: Brown Ale
Lidcombe, Australia

Bottle. Good taste, just a bit thin. Aroma has caramel, and also apple. Flavour is sweet, with light bitterness. Silky palate, and medium body. Dark brown, with thin head.

Heavy appearance, but weak on the flavor. slight brown sugar taste, but this does not come close to other brown ales I have had.

For a 4.4% beer produced by a major this is impressive stuff. A great sessionable dark beer with good malt presence. Nice

375ml. Dark ruby to black in colour with no head and only a smattering of tiny bubbles that quickly make tehri way to the edge of the glass and disappear. Looks very mush like a glass of cola. Deep aroma of chocolate, toffee and roasted malt, mildly aromatic and feels smooth in the mouth with a burnt wood smoke aftertaste.

finally something other than a pale lager, but now its just a brown, mild taste, nothing standoutish, almost like a coffee ish end taste...

Certainly better than the more commonly seen Toohey’s New, this beer still isn’t much to write home about. Refreshing and satisfying after a day in the hot sun, but that’s about it.

Poured a nice foamy head with a dark body. Inital taste is a sweet caramel, but you can get a definate taste of the malt. A great session beer!

Purchased at the liquor store next to Coles in Darling Harbour, Sydney. Pours dark opaque brown, thin white head. Aroma is malty, smoky, and roasty. Flavor is the same, thins out, becomes watery, towards the end, but finishes with some earth-like pine qualities.
