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.

On tap at the brewery. Dark brown color, slight tan head. Sweet roasted nut aroma, slightly chocolatey. Thick, rich, smooth, and always an enjoyable beer for me.

Bottle. Dark brown in colour with a large tan head. Pretty typical and kinda mild. Notes of malt, caramel, hops, nuts and chocolate. Not too interresting.

Not too shabby, but I like the Lager better. This was kind of what I expected it to taste like. That’s about the best description I can give it, and if you’re here, then you know what it tastes like already.

Draught: Pours dark brown, small white head. Caramel, toffee, and nuts all up front with a roasted finish and a touch of chocolate and a slight hop bitterness. It is what it is a brown ale and right on with the style.

Medium brown pour with a thin head. nutty slighty chocolate flavor. to me this brew is just overcarbonated for the style. not bad but nothing to rave about

good for this style, a bitter-like after taste that is not unpleasant, reminds me of chocolate used for baking, hope to try some spring beers soon, just so bad out still have the wintry urge
