Commercial Description:
The Brown Ale is a traditional beer related to the first beers ever brewed commercially. Brewed with an interesting blend of malts, including pale two-row Harrington, Metcalfe, and Maris Otter malt, Caramel, Munich, and roasted Carafa malts, the Brown Ale shines with a deep mahogany luster. The malt flavor is complex and deep as well, with notes of biscuit, nut, and caramel. With moderate hop bitterness, a deep malt body, and a fruity ale fermentation character, the Samuel Adams Brown Ale satisfies the soul and doesn’t overwhelm the tongue.

Bottle. Dark amber with almost no head. Light palate. Nice hoppy aroma. Taste starts with a nice hop flavor with a nutty finish. Not a bad beer for the price.

Huge creamy suds cascade over this beautiful tan-brown hued ale. Caramel and nuts aromas waft to the nose. Very creamy on the palate, this well hopped ale is slightly bitter with flavors of burnt malt and hickory. A worthy companion to the other great beers in the Sam Adams stable, this ale pairs well with burgers or brats or try it with a package of beer nuts.

I enjoy malty, bready beers and this is right up my alley. It has a slightly sweet, nutty aroma and a flavor to match. One of Sam Adam’s best.

Pours a clear dark brown colour with a medium vanilla head. aroma is very pleasent. lightly roasted malts, almonds and slight caramel. Taste is light as well, but creamy and pleasent all the way through.

Aroma is bready and malty, slightly sweet. Appearance is brown (duh!), and translucent. The flavor is hoppy, some malty sugary sweetness, and a little nutty. Hops dominate. Stinging hop palate. OK overall.

talvez por ser mi estilo de cerveza es un poco mejor que las demas de esta gente. no vale la pena mentir, la mayoria de cervezas huelen igual y el sabor es lo unico que las puede hacer sobresalir entre otras. samuel adams = overrated y + $ en anuncios

12 ounce bottle- poured out a strong tea color with a tall tan head that lasted the whole glass. Aroma was a great mix of malt and toffee. The caramel laced taste and cream smooth texture of this beer will make it hard to beat. Excellent.

Much like the Black Lager that came in this mix pack this is weak. I really am not a fan. It has a very average feel to it and is less than the brown ales I’ve had before.
