Flossmoor Station Pullman Brown

Brewed by Flossmoor Station Restaurant & Brewery
Style: Brown Ale
Flossmoor, Illinois USA

I hate brown ales -But this one makes up for the style in general.Wonderfull vanilla nose and a massive malty body(for a brown)make this a American Brown ale masterpiece!

i had to ask the good looking woman working the bar if she got the wrong beer. i thought it was a stout in front of me. this was almost black with a light brown head. even had a hint of coffee in the nose. caramel aroma with some light syrup or molasses too. great rich velvetysweetness, definite molasses flavor and light chocolate with a great caramel aspect. a nutty roast finish with a background hop presence.

This is an excellent example of an English Brown. The toasy malt character is amazing, I love that in a beer. Pours a dark brown, almost black, with a lacy off-white head. The beer itself has an amazing malt profile, with a great balance. This beer won first place in the Brown category at the World Beer Cup, so that tells you something. This is quite a beer. This is year round on tap at the brewery.

this by far is the best brown ale i have ever had. made with molasses and 7 differnt malts poured the color of porter deep dark brown almost black small head but lots of lacing from this thick creamy monster of a brown.taste of molasses nuts and lots of malts aromas abound very complex. this from a small brew pub very impressive. better than rouges and you can get your own now that they started bottling if you can find it voted best small brew pub in 2006

Tap at the Station. This may be the best brown ale ever brewed. Black as a train plume, thicker than Oil! Nutty, molassesy, caramelized, darkly sweet. Not at all thin, grainy or secretly a porter. Blow the whistle! And keep on blowin’! WOO-WOOOO!!!

22oz bomber, just released. What? I can’t believe how good this beer is. I’m a sucker for brown ales, but this takes the cake. Dark brown, great dense head, rich complexity. Stunning. Really.

Rating 111, Bomber via trade with BBB63, thanks Mike for another great beer. Tons of foam on the pour, had to let settle. Nose is huge like the foam. Pours brown with a wonderful head. Nose is great, with big notes of molasses, brown sugar and sweet malts. Taste is sweet and sticky with a lot of flavor. Its always nice to find an exceptional brown, because in my opinion it is a style that is usually very flawed. This is very nice, very rich and incredibly smooth.

thanks to psprings for sharing this... pours a dark cola brown color with a small head which needed some help to get going. very rich aroma of chocolate, coffee nuttiness, a light lactic sourness, ash, caramel, earth (which i now know is the oats) and nearly metallic maltiness (metal dissipates). the flavor caught me off guard and i had to keep checking the label to make sure this wasn’t listed as an old timey porter... chocolate, ample amounts of roasty coffee, brown sugar, chocolate, ash, a touch of sourness similar to coffee and a plethora of floral hops on the finish which linger into the aftertaste to mix with coffee. the medium body leans on full but is in no way sweet or sticky. it’s very smooth and creamy yet a nice balance is made from ash and roasty bitterness. there’s something very familiar and comforting in this brew...8/4/8/5/18/4.3
