Anderson Valley Bootjack Brown Ale

Brewed by Anderson Valley Brewing Company
Style: Brown Ale
Boonville, California USA

A good solid brown ale. Roasted malts and caramel in the nose and flavour. A nice hop finish characteristic of Anderson valley.

To me, a brown ale is one of the more difficult beers to rate - perhaps because the interpretation seems to encompass so many types of beers. Maybe it’s because I haven’t had to really knock my socks off. Well, the Anderson Valley offering is definitely one of the better brown ale offerings. Good malt body, a nice crisp hop bitterness make this a very enjoyable brew. A good step up to something new for your Lager drinking friends!
