Newcastle Brown Ale

Brewed by John Smiths (Heineken UK)
Style: Brown Ale
Tadcaster, England

Serve in Dimpled mug

Bottle @ Lochview Motel. Pours a toffee brown colour with a nicely proportioned head. The nose has hazelnuts and some subtle chocolate notes. The taste has a little more chocolate but the hazelnuts are still dominant. The palate is medium to full bodied with a creamy texture and a refreshing finish. Overall, this is one of the best mass-produced beers, for certain.

550ml bottle. Clear brown with average white head. Faint malt aroma. Flat caramel malt taste. Remember it as a better one some years ago.

A good, classic brown ale. Smells nice, with an amber color. Smooth taste, with a creamy finish. One of the better "easy to find" beers. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

One of my favorite session beers. Newcastle can sometimes be skunked but when it’s not, it’s an easy going ale with some butterscotch/toffee aspect to it. That’s really all there is. It’s not complex, and it’s pretty light bodied. I recommend it to anybody trying to transition into more full-flavored beers.

Love this beer. Smooth taste. No hangover no bad aftertaste. I could drink these all day long.

Honestly, how have I not reviewed this before now? I’ve had it a number of times both in bottle and on tap. Nuts is the pervading theme here with it being nut brown and nutty, creamy flavour. Good carpet of white head and a tasty pint every time. Might not be the pinnacle of brewing excellence, but consistent when there’s a row of taps with nothing else that you want to drink... and I do like a brown ale.

Den här ölen intogs under ett ganska kraftigt alkoholrus och därför bör denna recensionen tas med en stor nypa salt. Och det enda jag kan dra mig till minnes om är att den var helt ok, men inte mer.
