Commercial Description:
Charleston Brown is made with roasted Belgian and Munich Malts and expertly blended with a touch of toasted dark malt. American and British hops yield a balanced flavor - not too sweet - a very complicated and interesting flavor.

Draft. Pours deep brown with a tan head. Aroma was biscuity and yeasty, not very pleasant. Smooth roasty taste which made up a little on the aroma. I didn’t find this to be anything I would want to drink again.

Draught at Charlotte International Airport. Pours brown with an average, frothy, off-white, lasting head with good lacing. Aroma is average malt (cookie, caramel, nutty), light hops (herbs), average yeast (leather) with notes of toffee. Light bodied, sticky texture, average carbonation, and a metallic finish. Average duration, light sweetness, acidity, and bitterness.

I tell you this... I have drank a few other brown ales. Sam adams, petes, cotton wood low down brown(good), & new castle. I rate charleston above all the above.

draught at Murphy’s Law Pub. Pours brown (duh), small white head. The nose is heavily nutty with smoked almonds up front.There’s a bit of caramel and coffee in there too. The beer is not so dense and the sweetness is not over bearing. Yeah, it sounds good, even as I type it, but the balance is off and some salty, veggie notes come out. Okay, I guess.

Enjoyed at the ’Pirate’s House’ in Savannah GA on draught. Fantastic malty, nutty, roasted initial flavor, then flavor disappears. Would have been one of my favorites if the flavor could have hung on a little longer.
