COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Mikkeller’s Brown Nose is a brown ale brewed with lots of lactose and sweet Belgian chocolate, which makes it as thick and sweet as the ’Brown Nose’ you’re being served opposite your sausages, at the Copenhagen swinger stands.

Davros (1484) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - MAR 24, 2013
Pours dark brown with a large tan head and some small floating white chunks... Nose shows overt chocolate and roasted malt along with some fresh roasted coffee. Lovely. Sweet flavour, more chocolate and softer coffee. A bit too sugary sweet though. Could use more carbonation and a thicker body.

Bruce’s Birthday Bash at the Craft Clerkenwell. Keg. Opaque dark brown beer, tiny tan head. Smooth palate with minerally carbonation. Pleasant dark chocolate, mildly sweet. Underneath is well buried and slightly bitter dark fruits. But it’s all about the chocolate here. Nice beer!

Ungstrup (26267) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - JAN 9, 2013
Draft. A black beer with a faint brown shine at the bottom of the glass under a fluffy dark brown head. The aroma has chocolate and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of chocolate, lactose, and roasted malt, leading to a dry roasted finish - too roasted to be a chocolate milk
