Two Brothers Brown Fox Session Ale

Formerly brewed at Two Brothers Brewing Company
Style: Mild Ale
Warrenville, Illinois USA

Dark brown with a thin off-white head. Smooth and drinkable with mild carbonation. Slightly tart with a hint of bitterness that compliments the malty body nicely.

Deep brown with fluffy cream head that fades slowly. Earthy aroma. Earthy malt flavors with maybe a hint of plums. Acidic finish with no hops noticable.

A Mild Ale? How is that a style? Oh well, learn something new every day. Anyway, this stuff pours with a thin head and an acidic dried raisin aroma. Damn, this is crap. Why bother brewing BS like this? I hate to be harsh, but whoever these Two Brothers are, they started it by infecting my mouth. I try to be nice and support micros and then they try throwing one past me like a Randy Johnson fastball. Damn them. I hope they are twins and don’t like each other but have to see each other every day. Man, that’s cold.

Bottle pours dark caramel, small cream colored pancake batter like head, nice lacing, with ample carbonation.   Light malts, grains, with a very subtle milk chocolate aroma.   Malty up front, slight hop bitterness emerging in the middle.   Finishes with a very subtle hop flavor, along with the malts.   Decent flavor, decent mouthfeel.    Not bad, certainly easy to drink!   Thanks goes out to MarkR for the trade!

great malt profile, a good body, lightly nutty, a great session beer, and a good mild

I alsways have a little trouble judging light flavored beers like this. Small, light yellow colored head tops a dark brown liquid. Aroma of toffee, green beans and some roasted malts. The flavor has lightly roasted malts and a little coffee. There was too much carbonation in my bottle.

Color is a deep dark brown, head is large, firm, creamy, tan. Not a great deal going on, aroma-wise, some nuts, vanilla? Loads of malt, and just a sprinkle of hops, here and there. Yes, you could probably drink a lot of this, during some sort of "session", but I’m not sure why you would want to. There’s very little of interest here, no spark, no pop, no zing. Am I asking too much? Maybe...

Draft, at South Water Market, downtown Chicago It's appropriate that this scores in the 50th percentile at this writing, because it's exactly as advertised, a decent “session” beer and much to be thrilled about. A thin head that leaves rings above a pleasing dark brown body. Slightly fruity ale nose. The agreeable roasty malt flavor that has a peek of darker roasts, like it had rubbed elbows with a porter on the subway. Discernable English hops balance the malt sweetness. No more or less than a good session ale.
