En mysig ale som dessvärre ger ett något blekt och mesigt intryck. Målar med utspädda färger och entusiasmerar bara till en viss gräns. Medelmåttig, kort och gott.

Aroma: Nutty Appearance: Brown with a hint of Amber Flavor: Caramel and Nutty Palate: Sweet,Watery, Carbonation Overall Impression: Above average brown ale. Tastes better on tap than in bottle which has adds a hint of skunkiness.

Tap. Pours a dark amber-brown with a medium off-white head. Aroma is slightly nutty and sweet. Excellent flavor, although not very malty or hoppy. Very well-balanced beer. Slightly sweet and nutty finish. One of the first great beers I ever had and I still love it.

500ml can. Poured a coppery brown into the glass with a medium white to tan head. Low bitterness and aroma of barley. Quite surprised at how good this was.

My first brown ale i had ever had. At the time i found it very flavorful, not quite so much now. Still a damn solid beer with lots of flavor. Pours nice and dark with a nutty aroma.

Pours a lite brown color. Very smooth and sweet brown ale. Much better draft then from the skunky clear color bottle. Good brown ale, not great.

12 oz. bottle. Dark caramel color, thin off-white head and minimal lacing. Skunky aroma when you first open it. After it airs, aroma of caramel malt and dough/yeast. Flavor of malt, and light spices. Finish is a bit watery but with a sweet malt after-taste. One of my early favorite dark beers.

I’ve had newcastle many times, and this last time I was thoroughly disappointed. This brown ale had a skunky aroma and flavor, and I was really turned off. I am used to a dark brown ale with a slight sweetness to it, but this beer was so far from it! I
