COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This dark, rich ale is based on the combination of eight different malts and cereals. This yields a complex malt profile with some sweetness, balanced by American hops, which also provides the ale with a citrussy aroma. Can be enjoyed on a cold day by itself or with grilled meat and hearty stews. Ølfabrikken Brown Ale is, of course, unpasteurized, unfiltered and bottle conditioned like all of our beers.

Dark red-brown ale, clear. Smooth chocolatey malt leads very nicely to a mildly hoppy finish. Not overdone at all. Well joined up tasty beer. Who needs Jackie Brown?

Bottle (swingtop)@home. Pours clear brown, with small off white head. Little lacings. Aroma of caramel and toffee, and a little note of choclate as well. Taste is lots of malt, medium bitternss, and a little sourness as well, mabye becauce it is a vintage. Body is medium with a slightly creamy texture. Still some carbonation. Old but still a nice beer.

First beer, second day at European Beer Festival 08, 100ml from tap. Deep, brown body. Thin, but lasting beige head. Sweet, roasted malts to the nose. Cocoa flavour with notes of citrus fruits in the tail. Medium palate and fairly well made brown ale (13.09.2008).

0,5 l bottle, shared with Roger. Best before 7. sept. 2008. Brorwn/dark red color with a fine off-white head. Aroma is strong roasted malt and also hops. The flavor is sweet malty, roasted malt and fine hops. A very nice brown ale. A shame Christian can´t brew it anymore.
