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.

the beer looked and poured very well. It tasted a little flat and could use a little more kick to it

Leafs93 (868) - Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 10, 2010
On tap, pours a deep reddish brown with a offwhite head. Aroma consits of coffee, nuts, caramel, earthyness and woodyness. Taste is sweet with a very creamy mouthfeel. The carbonation remains steady throughout and gives a light feel and dry finish. Very enjoyable ale that Brooklyn has done well.
