COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brooklyn Brown Ale, made exclusively with American ingredients, won Bronze medals at the Great American Beer Festival in the Strong Ale Category in 1991 and in the American Brown Ale Category in 1992. Brooklyn Brown uses pale, crystal, chocolate, and black malts to attain a complex creamy texture. It is more heavily hopped than its British forbears.

35,5 cl bottle. Foam and Co2 are typical ale. Medium body and medium brown colour, oily texture describe it. Every gulp is salty first then chocolate and hop dominate beside of good smoke.

teddybeer (571) - Madrid, SPAIN - JAN 13, 2012
33cl bottle. Brown coloured with a creamy and quickly diminishes tan head. Nice lacework. Aroma is toasty, nutty and slightly caramelish. Flavour is slightly sweet at the beginning with some dry fruits hints. The final is moderate bittery with an average duration. Carbonation is medium. Body is medium.

It tastes great. Head doesn’t last, but the flavor lingers lovingly on the palate. Hint of chocolate, but not overpowering. Very good overall. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

A nice creamy brown ale, almost reminds me of a stronger flavored Newcastle. Definitely one to try.

Rating #674, flaske fra Lagersalget

En brown ale der i alle aspekter ligger langt fra de gængse bryg som fx Newcastle Brown Ale. Aroma er kraftigere, mere maltet og har spor af kaffegrums. Smagen er en anelse syrlig, men bærer stadig præg af det ristede. Tyngde ganske tilfredsstillende. Alt i alt en af de bedre brown ales.

A very smooth brown ale. Great with a meal. Dark brown color. A beer that I can drink many of.
