Commercial Description:
This beautiful, deep russet brew has the sweet and somewhat nutty character of Adam Avery's late (1992-2002) Chocolate Lab, for which it is named. Crystal and chocolate malts give this beer a brown sugar maltiness with hints of vanilla and nuts, while subtle hopping gives it an overall drinkability that's second to none, just like Ellie!

Bottle. Mostly clear light brown with a brief loose white head. Nice nutty aroma with a hint of roast in the back. Somewhat creamy palate. Brief hint of bitter to start, then the nuttiness comes in. The finish suggests some roast and has a very slight hoppiness. A very good brown - it is far from being boring and the light roast would make for a good session brew.

Ellie’s (bottle) has been a go-to beer for my friends and me for awhile now; I’m surprised it’s taken me so long to rate. Anyways, Ellie’s is good-lookin’, deep mahogany brown with an unfortunately short-lived, pretty tan head. The aroma is a vague sweetness and roasted nuts. The taste is fairly sweet with no intrusive hops; the finish is nutty and still free from bitterness. Ellie’s is not a terribly complex beer, but its drinkability is incredibly high.

I am glad my review of this beer comes from a draft sample because out of a bottle this is not very good. Nice roasted malty sweetness with a hint of hops. Nice creamy mouthfeel with a dose of hops on the finish.

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 29 Sep 2007) Dark brown colour with brief, frothy, pale brown head. Malty, nutty nose with discreet coffee notes, roasted chestnuts, dark rye bread and some citrus in the background. Malty, nutty taste with notes of coffee and chocolate. Lovely balance. Very nice brown ale.

A great version of a english brown ale. Rustic brown in color with little lace. Aromas of toffee, nuttiness, and light hints of chocolate and floral hops. medium light body with a nutty malty taste and a big balance of hops that gives this beer a dry finish. Great with BBQ.

This beer poured a nice translucent brown color with a light, off white head.The flavors are rich with a nutty smooth finish. I though this was a very nice beer.
