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.

A great brown ale. Sweet and warm and a great winter beer when crammed into Chicago bars.

clear dark dark amber with a tan head that fades relatively quickly... malty, slightly sweet aroma, toasty almost lightly burnt, a little bready, some dark fruits but in no real pungency, light coffee and choc... fairly lively, medium to medium thin body, roasty chocolately, some faint coffee, raisins, fruity... not very hoppy, has a grassy touch, but certainly more british than the newer american brown ales...

UPDATED: NOV 26, 2011 Has a nice dark appearance, very nutty with a roasted malt taste and hints of chocolate. A lot of flavor in this one and a fine brown ale.

Poured from a bottle. Appearance is a translucent brown with a thing head of khaki foam. Aroma is sweet malts with notes of chocolate and coffee. Taste is malty chocolate and lie crust. Finish is long and sweet. Not really my kind of beer.
