Samuel Adams Brown Ale

12 oz bottle poured in to a pint glass. Clear, tea colored beer with streaming carbonation and an off white head that is holding well. Smell is all malt and caramel. Poor mouthfeel, kind of light for the style. Flavor is malty, but not necessarily very good. I would drink it if my options were limited, but would not seek it out.

Bottle. Poured a medium brown color with minimal white head. Aroma was of sweet malt and perhaps a touch of caramel. Flavor was slightly hoppy with some nuttiness. Good carbonation. Fairly thin.

One of the best Sam Adams brews. A good beer to drink when you want to take your time and enjoy a beer with flavor.

Pours deep coppery brown with 1 finger head that leaves a good lacing. Nose is not very forthcoming but what is there is malty sweet. Taste is not as sweet as I would expect. Impression is very much of rasted nuts and slightly dry. Not that impressive. Drinkable but would not buy again as their are several browns in this price range that taste much better.

Smooth and malty, with just a hint of nuttiness, almost develops an earthiness to it as it warms, not bad, but not great.

Bottle: Pours a dark brown. The aroma was malty caramel. The flavor was very sweet for a brown ale. It was smooth however, just not my favorite brown ale.

Bottle. Body is a dark brown with red highlights. Head sits at about a finger and dies down to a thin film. Aromas are earthy with a little bit of sourness. Flavor is much the same as aroma... sourness is a little heavier than expected and earthy (wet soil) flavor is nice and there is a hint of sweet and roasted malt in the background. Nota lot of complexity, but pleasant enough.

A classic brown ale. Once again, Sam Adams provides an ale that is a unique twist on a classic style. A light caramel and nutty taste builds with each sip. Very well done!
