Jun 29, 2008 6/28/08 On draught at the Brewpub. Aroma is malt and very roasty, almost munich, and has a light PNW hop balance. Appearance is hazy brown with a moderate tan head and lacing. Flavor is roast sweet malt forward with low bittering and very light sourness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a medium-high carb texture that give a slight tartness. Overall, good and complex and very easy drinking for a hot day.

Mar 16, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. Crystal clear dark amber with dense and creamy tan head and light streaky lace. Nutty, toasty and brown sugary nose. All those notes come back for the mid-palate, on top of a light, clean, easy-drinking body and soft carb. Big leafy and earthy hop notes erupt at the finish and hold with a cling. This is a clean, clearly defined, and fresh-tasting beer. Not sure if it was a recipe tweak and a brand new keg or what, but clearly a better beer than what’s been served under this handle in the past.

8/18/2007: LaConner Brown is amber-gold ("burnt sienna" according to my wife) and isn’t really cloudy, but does seem a bit murky. The thin crown that leaves some lacing. Chocolate cake and caramel are evident in the aroma. Caramel malts and a nice even richness and balanced bitterness comprise the main malty flavor. There is a touch of mandarin orange hoppiness that lingers on the palate following the chocolate-flavored finish. This medium-bodied ale has a mild level of carbonation that creates and smooth texture. Overall this is an interesting and enjoyable brown ale, especially for those that like the chocolate and orange combination.
Draught (6% ABV) at LaConner Brewing Company in LaConner, Washington. Rating #13 for this beer...
