Dec 29, 2006 Wheat, biscuit aroma. Flavor is biscuity with nice and smooth malts. Thick mouthfeel, and finishes smooth. Not very bitter hops, but I think the malts are the real show here. Its pretty thick for a 5%. Makes your stomach feel full, and its easy to make a session out of.

Dec 9, 2006 started it just a bit TPP cold, which robbed it of some elements. not too shabby, but not too thrilling. were it being served at a game I might change my opinion and say it was great by comparison to the mass mkt. beers. sometimes, most times I rate and leave rating lying around for a year or so. this one is being done as I drink and tus my feelings may fall this way or that, but doubt far from my feeling that I like it okay.
and as it’s another beer brought back by my gf w/o me asking it tastes all the better

Dec 6, 2006 Pours clear amber with a tan head. The aroma has caramel, toffee and butterscotch - overall a fairly rich malt with light hop spice. Medium body with sharp fizzy carbonation. On the taste it starts immediately with carbonation filling the mouth with some sour caramel malt and some spice (or it could be the carbonation playing tricks on me). The finish is fairly astringent and has some spice. Not the best Brooklyn beer by a longshot. As the beer is warming both diacetyl and oxidation are both becoming apparent and this still has a long way before it’s best-by date.

Dec 5, 2006 BOTTLE (as Brooklyn Ale several months ago) Question; since Brooklyn Lager tastes like an Ale, does Brookyn Ale taste like a Lager? Answer; yes, a malty, bready kinda forgettable one. Least favorite BB product tasted so far. Buy Again = nah

Nov 28, 2006 Orange yellow color with a medium oof-white head. Aroma of wheat and slightly nutty. Tasted slightly burnt, good seasonal ale to drink while watching the fall classic. Lots of character.
