Commercial Description:
A richly colored ale of character... Mildly aromatic with the richness of dark, German malts to support the dryish English hops, this brown ale has both substance and character.

Draft at the Grey Lodge in Philly. Nothing special here. Nice brown. Good malty flavor. Had a hint of hops.

On cask at Victory. Nice color. Good dry aroma and flavor. Very nutty and complex. This is a northern brown ale. Apparently so is Newcastle. Having them back to back, I don’t think I could tell. Maybe it’s just really great warm on cask, but I think people are shooting a bit low.

Hazy deep brown colored with aroma of caramel malt, almonds, hops, and some cocoa. Tastes nut browny with hints of caramel, hops, and brown sugar in the finish.

A decent brown ale. Nutty in flavor along with some malt. Nothing in the finish though.

Pours a somewhat cloudy medium brown body with a small, yet sticky, off-white head. Aroma is carmel and nuts with a very subtle hint of citrus. Flavor was semi-sweet carmel, nuts, dark chocolate, and oranges in the finish.

One of the better brown ales I’ve sampled in a long time, reddish-brown color, not all that much head though, very little lacing around the glass, not much of an aroma but did have notes of malt & chocolate, medium-light body, pretty smooth & drinkable, would make a nice session beer, nutty taste with other notes of chocolate & malt, balanced finish with more nutty flavors
